From the administrators' statement
The Company traded as Cenpart Limited, as a manufacturer of crash barriers to the off road market such as car parks, warehouses and factories. Other ancillary products were offered to include a full range of traffic and fencing products.
The Company operated from Unit 1 Northmoor Industrial Estate, Moor Street, Brierley Hill, West Midiands, DY5 3SU which was also its registered office. Other statutory information about the company and EC Regulations applying to these insolvency proceedings is provided at Appendix 2.
In early 2016 the Company was approached in relation to a large project to manufacture wind deflection barrier posts for the new Mersey Gateway Bridge at Runcom, which was a unique project developed as an improvement on an original design used on the Forth Road Bridge and the aim of the engineers was to increase the post centres from 2.0m to 4.0m. This challenge led to an extended design period, and many changes, as the customer's design engineers and the project engineers went back and forth to finalise the design. The Company originally expected the order to be placed before Christmas 2016, but because of the design issues the Company did not receive the order until late April 2017, with completion of the bridge scheduled for mid-August 2017, the work to be undertaken was highly time pressurised.
