Registry summary

Company overview

ZUKEN UK LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 01477257, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 5 February 1980 and lists its registered address as ALMONDSBURY, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for ZUKEN UK LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 27 October 2026.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
