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 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.”
Significant events
- “During the financial year the business identified an opportunity to consolidate the current three manufacturing sites based in Milton Keynes, Andover and Strood, into a new modern facility in Milton Kenyes. The decision to undertake this project was driven by two factors: The proximity of key customers and potential clients to Milton Keynes, and this location is ideal for distributing throughout the UK. The opportunities for cost savings and efficiencies presented by operating from a single site. During the year the decision to embark on this project was made with the consolidation planned to take place from July 2025 to February 2026. The impact on profitability is expected to be realised from May 2026.”
- “During the year the company undertook a strategic consolidation of its operational sites, closing its facilities in Andover and Kent and relocating operations to a central site in Milton Keynes. The restructuring resulted in one-off costs of £247,512 (2024: £nil) relating primarily to relocation, site closure costs, and other restructuring costs. Due to their size and non-recurring nature, these costs have been presented as exceptional items within administrative expenses.”
