What this shows Minkpapir's Innovation Score is 23.8/100 (13th 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 Minkpapir?

Each dot is one of Minkpapir’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). Minkpapir’s own 10.5 claims/patent is at or below the 13.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Minkpapir's grants concentrate

Minkpapir A/S is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 75% of grants classified under C14B (Mechanical Treatment OR Processing OF Skins, Hides OR Leather IN GENERAL; Pelt-shearing MACHINES; Intestine-splitting Machines). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Minkpapir sits between Microrganic Technologies, Inc. and Mitsubishi Generator Co., Ltd..

Minkpapir's three-year grant acceleration

Minkpapir A/S shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
