What this shows Macdermid's Innovation Score is 30.4/100 (34th 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 Macdermid?

Each dot is one of Macdermid’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). Macdermid’s own 17.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 3.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Macdermid's grants concentrate

MacDermid Acumen, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under C25D (Processes FOR THE Electrolytic OR Electrophoretic Production OF COATINGS; ELECTROFORMING; Apparatus Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Macdermid sits between MVP (H.K.) Industries Limited and Manitou Equipment America, LLC.

Macdermid's three-year grant acceleration

MacDermid Acumen, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
