What this shows JGC's Innovation Score is 55.6/100 (top 7% 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 JGC?

Each dot is one of JGC’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). JGC’s own 9.6 claims/patent is at or below the 11.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

How JGC's grant cadence moved

Between 2020–2024, JGC Corporation received 33 grants versus 16 in 2015–2019 (+106% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2024 at 10 grants and bottomed in 2015 at 2. Lead class B01D accounts for 25.9% of the portfolio across 61 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Hermes Sellier (Societe Par Actions Simplifiee) (#6,245) and Mcginley Engineered Solutions, LLC (#6,253).

JGC's three-year grant acceleration

JGC Corporation shows 23 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
