Does more volume mean deeper claims for Cold?

Each dot is one of Cold’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Cold’s own 25.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Cold's grants concentrate

Cold Chain Technologies, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 77.4% of grants classified under B65D (Containers FOR Storage OR Transport OF Articles OR Materials, e.g. Bags, Barrels, Bottles, Boxes, Cans, Cartons, Crates, Drums, Jars, Tanks, Hoppers, Forwarding CONTAINERS; Accessories, Closures, OR F). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Cold sits between CFS Concrete Forming Systems Inc. and Curt Manufacturing, LLC.

Cold's three-year grant acceleration

Cold Chain Technologies, LLC shows 18 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
