What this shows Nutramax's Innovation Score is 35.0/100 (top 50% 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 Nutramax?

Each dot is one of Nutramax’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). Nutramax’s own 13.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Nutramax's grants concentrate

Nutramax Laboratories, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 82.1% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Nutramax sits between Nexter Munitions and Neuropro Technologies, Inc..

Nutramax's three-year grant acceleration

Nutramax Laboratories, Inc. shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
