BLOM AEROFILMS LIMITED
Company number 01009273 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
BLOM AEROFILMS LIMITED represents a completed strategic exit rather than a going concern—the company's operational assets and business value were systematically transferred to its parent entities (Blom ASA and Cyient Europe Limited) between 2017 and 2018, reducing a £4.3 million balance sheet to a dormant shell with £1 in assets. The dissolution process, effective September 2026, is the appropriate final step for this entity, with any remaining strategic value residing in the geospatial data archives, client relationships, and technical capabilities now held within the broader Blom/Cyient group structure. The only actionable recommendation is to ensure dissolution is completed cleanly, with all inter-company balances, data compliance obligations, and residual liabilities properly resolved before the company is struck off the register.
