What this shows Laboratoire's Innovation Score is 44.7/100 (top 25% 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 Laboratoire?

Each dot is one of Laboratoire’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). Laboratoire’s own 15.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Laboratoire's grants concentrate

Laboratoire Francais du Fractionnement et des Biotechnologies is a focused PatentsView assignee: 21 CPC subclasses with 72.9% of grants classified under C07K (Peptides). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (12 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2021. By volume, Laboratoire sits between Johnson Health Tech Co., Ltd. and Lowe's Companies, Inc..

Laboratoire's three-year grant acceleration

Laboratoire Francais du Fractionnement et des Biotechnologies shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 17 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.
