Does more volume mean deeper claims for Progressive?
Each dot is one of Progressive’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). Progressive’s own 19.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Progressive's grants concentrate
Progressive Sterilization, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61L (Methods OR Apparatus FOR Sterilising Materials OR Objects IN GENERAL; Disinfection, Sterilisation OR Deodorisation OF AIR; Chemical Aspects OF Bandages, Dressings, Absorbent Pads OR Surgical ARTICLES;). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Progressive sits between Pro-Tech Manufacturing and Distribution, Inc. and Pure Watercraft, Inc..
Progressive's three-year grant acceleration
Progressive Sterilization, LLC shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
