Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Group structure
- DERALAM LAMINATES LIMITED · parent
- Intergral Surface Designs Limited 82.21%
- Cubicle Works Limited 43%
Significant events
- “The group maintains its focus on improving margins, and in challenging conditions achieved a gross profit of £13.3m in 2024, up from £12.9m in 2023, which the directors consider represents a strong performance.”
- “Maintaining turnover in excess of £28.4m helped counter the effects of increasing costs of supply, haulage and distribution leading to pre-tax profits of £743k compared to the previous year's £447k.”
- “Over recent years, the company, and wider group, has sought to engage with strategic partners, developing new markets and supply connections. The company has continued to do this over 2024 and will continue to do this going forward.”
- “The directors remain confident that the developmental work undertaken so far, and measures put in place over the years, will continue to come through into 2025.”
- “The directors believe that the challenges faced and overcome in the period 2022 to 2024, and the actions taken to address those challenges, has positioned the company well for 2025 and into the foreseeable future.”
- “The group board has considered the risk posed by Brexit and has noted that there are likely to be risks associated with increases in the cost of raw materials and potential labour cost increases.”
