Does more volume mean deeper claims for Free-free?
Each dot is one of Free-free’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). Free-free’s own 5.2 claims/patent is at or below the 9.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Free-free's grants concentrate
Free-free Industrial Corp. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 38.2% 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 2020 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Free-free sits between FK Irons Inc. and Fluidigm Canada Inc..
Free-free's three-year grant acceleration
Free-free Industrial Corp. shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 18 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.
