What this shows Maruzen Petrochemical Co., Ltd. stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-PAR, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-DOWN, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #8,637 of 50,000; Innovation Score 51.2/100 sits in the top 12% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Liebert Corporation (±0 grants).
Maruzen Petrochemical Co., Ltd. has been granted 37 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Maruzen Petrochemical Co., Ltd. at #8,637 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 28 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in C08F (MACROMOLECULAR COMPOUNDS OBTAINED BY REACTIONS ONLY INVOLVING CARBON-TO-CARBON UNSATURATED BONDS). As a Foreign Corporation, Maruzen Petrochemical Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Maruzen sits between Liebert Corporation (37 patents, rank #8,632) and Medallia, Inc. (37 patents, rank #8,640) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 51.2/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 16 grants, compared with 19 in the 2015–2019 window, a -16% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Maruzen Petrochemical Co., Ltd.'s 11.0 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 28 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
