From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 13 May 2013 and was initially known as Ashworth Global Pipe Systems Limited. The name of the Company was subsequently changed to Astracast Limited on 6 February 2014. The registered number is 08526375.
The Company operated from its Trading Premises in Bradford from incorporation and employed 93 employees at the date of Administration.
The principal trading activity of the Company was the marketing, manufacture and supply of products for the kitchen and bathroom industry. In 2016, the Board considered that the key focus of the business should be on kitchen activity and sink production only and the Company took steps from that time to reduce non-core activity.
