ALUMINIUM DIRECT LIMITED
Company number 05378022 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Aluminium Direct Limited is a sub-scale micro-entity operating in the UK metals wholesale sector, with net assets of £31,865 representing a partial recovery from a five-year decline but still well below 2019 levels. The company's single-employee, family-owned structure provides cost discipline but creates significant key-person risk and limits its ability to compete on purchasing power or service breadth against larger distributors. While the 2025 improvement in the balance sheet is encouraging, the working capital position remains tight and the leverage ratio is elevated for a business exposed to commodity price volatility and cyclical end-markets. The company survives as a niche provider of bespoke aluminium extrusions rather than competing as a mainstream distributor.
