- Johnston Carmichael LLP
- 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
- “The global supply chain continues to calibrate itself following many companies increasing their inventory levels throughout the pandemic and at the onset of the war in Ukraine. We have taken steps to ensure the continuity of our own raw material supply and continue to work with our customers to establish their true annual demand following a few years of unusual buying patterns.”
- “The company continues to monitor developments surrounding PFAS and related legislation within the markets which it serves.”
- “Subsequent to the year end, ordinary dividends of £6,000,000 have been declared.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
