What this shows Furukawa's Innovation Score is 32.9/100 (43rd percentile of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Where Furukawa's grants concentrate

Furukawa Techno Material Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C22C (Alloys). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Furukawa sits between FTS Welding and Falcon Innovations Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd..

Furukawa's three-year grant acceleration

Furukawa Techno Material Co., Ltd. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
