What this shows Tiense's Innovation Score is 34.0/100 (46th 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 Tiense?

Each dot is one of Tiense’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). Tiense’s own 14.2 claims/patent is at or below the 16.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Tiense's grants concentrate

Tiense Suikerraffinaderij N.V. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under A23L (Foods, Foodstuffs OR Non-alcoholic Beverages, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; Preparation OR Treatment Thereof). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Tiense sits between Thomas Helledays Stiftelse FÖR Medicinsk Forskning and Toho Tenax Co., Ltd..

Tiense's three-year grant acceleration

Tiense Suikerraffinaderij N.V. shows 1 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.
