FLINT INK (U.K.) LIMITED
Company number 00326153 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Based on the available data, Flint Ink (U.K.) Limited presents a low overall risk profile, underpinned by a long operational history dating back to 1937, substantial share capital, and robust institutional backing from Arrowhead Investments and Goldman Sachs. The primary limitations in this assessment are the absence of detailed balance sheet metrics, which restricts the ability to calculate precise liquidity and solvency ratios, and the structural challenges inherent to the printing ink manufacturing sector. Further review of the full filed accounts is recommended to confirm operational profitability and working capital health.
