What this shows Press-seal's Innovation Score is 29.6/100 (31st 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 Press-seal?

Each dot is one of Press-seal’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). Press-seal’s own 14.6 claims/patent is at or below the 14.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Press-seal's grants concentrate

Press-Seal Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 45.5% of grants classified under F16L (PIPES; Joints OR Fittings FOR PIPES; Supports FOR Pipes, Cables OR Protective TUBING; Means FOR Thermal Insulation IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Press-seal sits between Pneumoflex Systems, LLC and Pro-Tech Manufacturing and Distribution, Inc..

Press-seal's three-year grant acceleration

Press-Seal Corporation shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
