UK-based polythene and plastic sheeting manufacturer CPR Manufacturing has ceased to trade after entering voluntary liquidation in November 2024.
Filing history on Companies House, the UK executive agency maintaining the register of companies, reveals the company decided to voluntarily wind-up operations ‘by reason of its liabilities’.
The plant, based in Alfreton, northern England, was established in 2000 as a recycling and extrusion facility producing polythene, linear, and compostable films for the industrial, retail, trade, local authority and healthcare sectors.
Asset advisory firm Walker Singleton, which is hosting the online auction, has invited bids on the company’s equipment from its manufacturing facility on Dunsford Road in Alfreton.
In total, there are 400 lots involved in the auction. This includes polythene film extrusion lines, as well as recently purchased bag welding and production equipment, plastic blending, recycling and cutting equipment. The operational equipment also includes a range of site, support and handling equipment and there are a large quantity of office furnishings available for sale.
Statements on Companies House reveal total assets available for preferential creditors are estimated at GBP 171,751, including GBP 20,500 in plant machinery and GBP 110,000 in stock.
Machinery for sale includes an Erema RGA-100E polyethylene recycling machine with an opening bid of GBP 2,000 and Maguire blender machinery with starting bids of GBP 250.
Interested parties are able to bid for products online until the auction closes from 12pm on Thursday, March 13. Viewings on the lots are by appointment only.
