Facts from the Companies House register and the latest accounts — not a rating

Accounts not prepared on a going-concern basis
The company ceased production in January 2025 and is in the process of closing the facility. The board have indicated that they wish to liquidate the company within the next 12 months. The directors therefore do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other that that of a going concern.
