Does more volume mean deeper claims for Ulma?
Each dot is one of Ulma’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). Ulma’s own 17.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Ulma's grants concentrate
Ulma Packaging, S. Coop is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under B65B (Machines, Apparatus OR Devices FOR, OR Methods OF, Packaging Articles OR MATERIALS; Unpacking). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Ulma sits between U-shin France and Univance Corporation.
Ulma's three-year grant acceleration
Ulma Packaging, S. Coop shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
