Shareholders of BLAZE SIGNS LIMITED
Companies House records one direct shareholder in Blaze Signs Limited’s share register: Blaze Signs Holdings Limited, which holds all 25,000 ordinary shares of GBP 1.00 each (100% of issued share capital), per registry data verified 21 September 2026. Blaze Signs Holdings Limited is also registered as the company’s person with significant control (PSC), notified 6 April 2016, with control recorded in the 75%-or-more band for ownership of shares, ownership of voting rights, and the right to appoint or remove directors. An earlier statement that the company had no registrable person was filed and withdrawn on the same day, 14 August 2016. Disclosure for this jurisdiction is Full: both the direct shareholder and the registered PSC are publicly available.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
Blaze Signs Holdings Limited is itself controlled by Blaze Bidco Limited (company number 12826771), which is registered as Blaze Signs Holdings Limited’s own PSC since 2 September 2020, also in the 75%-or-more band. Blaze Bidco Limited’s own PSC register shows Mr Andrew James Ducker as its person with significant control since 24 March 2026, holding shares, voting rights and board-appointment control each in the 75%-or-more band; this replaced Hexcite Holdings Limited, whose equivalent control ceased on the same date. Because each link in this chain is recorded only as a banded range (75% or more) rather than an exact percentage, an exact effective ownership percentage in Blaze Signs Limited cannot be calculated; based on the verified chain, Mr Ducker holds a substantial indirect controlling interest. Mr Ducker is also a serving director of Blaze Signs Limited (appointed 23 December 2021).
Data availability
Shareholder and PSC information for UK private companies is publicly disclosed at Companies House and is treated as Full for the direct shareholder and each verified tier of indirect control; percentages beyond the direct 100% shareholding are disclosed only as statutory control bands, not exact figures.

Data availability
Corporate-linkage information for this group is Partial: the verified chain covers the target company, its immediate and next-tier parent, one confirmed sister company and the ultimate beneficial owner, each cross-checked against that entity’s own PSC filing. An internally cached linkage record additionally listed further companies (including Elaghmore GP LLP and several apparently unrelated entities) that could not be independently verified as current corporate relationships of Blaze Signs Limited from the official filings reviewed, and have therefore been omitted.
