Significant events
- “Director P Lindley deceased 26 July 2024.”
- “Overall Turnover reduced by 2.7% after some tightening in key markets.”
- “The current financial year eventually saw more stable trading conditions in relation to raw material and reduced energy prices.”
- “Labour markets remain tight and a potential limit on future growth.”
- “Future raw material and potential Energy Costs levels continue to be a key risk, especially from competitor economies that may not be subject to the same pressures.”
- “General economic conditions for future periods also remain as one of the major principle external risks with some degree of market demand contraction likely in the short term.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
