The most recent insolvency notice for ACJ Aluminium Manufacturing & Maintenance Ltd is an Appointment of liquidators (CVL), published 03 November 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is Brendan P. Hogan (IP No 13030) of Cromwell & Co Insolvency Practitioners, 13 Ensign Business Centre, Westwood Way, Coventry, CV4 8JA, appointed 30 October 2026. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 March 2025, showed total assets of £30k and net assets of £7k. Those accounts were filed 18 months before the first insolvency notice, so they describe the company well before the process began. Liquidation winds a company up: a licensed insolvency practitioner (the liquidator) is appointed to sell the company's assets and distribute the proceeds to creditors in the order fixed by law, after which the company is dissolved. A creditors' voluntary liquidation (CVL) is started by the company's own directors and shareholders once it can no longer pay its debts as they fall due.
