What this shows Georg's Innovation Score is 33.0/100 (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.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Georg?

Each dot is one of Georg’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). Georg’s own 16.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Georg's grants concentrate

Georg Fischer Central Plastics LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under F16K (VALVES; TAPS; COCKS; ACTUATING-FLOATS; Devices FOR Venting OR Aerating). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Georg sits between Generation Z, LLC and Getinge Sterilization AB.

Georg's three-year grant acceleration

Georg Fischer Central Plastics LLC shows 2 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.
