Does more volume mean deeper claims for Reckitt?

Each dot is one of Reckitt’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). Reckitt’s own 2.1 claims/patent is at or below the 18.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Reckitt's grants concentrate

Reckitt & Colman (Overseas) Hygiene Home Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 1.8% of grants classified under A47L (Domestic Washing OR Cleaning ; Suction Cleaners IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (17 grants) versus a trough of 5 in 2020. By volume, Reckitt sits between Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. and Shenzhen Xunweijia Technology Development Co., Ltd..

Reckitt's three-year grant acceleration

Reckitt & Colman (Overseas) Hygiene Home Limited shows 35 grants in 2022–2024 against only 15 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.
