The most recent insolvency notice for Silvatec Design Limited is a Winding up order (Companies), published 05 November 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is J Peacock, appointed 28 October 2026. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case No 002625 of 2026). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 March 2024, showed total assets of £257k and net assets of -£4k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 31 months before its first insolvency notice. A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.

Winding up order (Companies) 05 Nov 2026
Silvatec Design Limited has been wound up by a High Court order on 28 October 2026, with J Peacock appointed as liquidator.
What happens next
The liquidator now realises the company's assets, invites creditors to prove their debts, and distributes what is recovered in the statutory order: the costs of the liquidation, preferential creditors (including employees' unpaid wages up to the statutory cap), secured creditors, then unsecured creditors. The liquidator must also report on the conduct of the directors. The company is normally dissolved about three months after the liquidator's final account.

Owed money by Silvatec Design Limited?
A bad debt this size rarely stops with the company that failed. If you're a supplier or creditor left short, it's worth knowing where you rank — and checking what the shortfall does to your own cashflow.
