What is established and what is not

No researcher review has been written for this company yet. 11 official records from 5 official sources are on file. 2 other entries are not official records: our own technical checks and searches, open directory listings, our inferences or the company's own statements. Everything is listed below with its evidence type: each entry confirms only what it literally says; none of them is a review. The manufacturing role above rests on the official records listed below, and only as far as each literally goes: a facility registration or licence is not an observation of current production. Nothing here confirms ownership or trading status beyond what each record literally says.

Facts on file, each with its evidence type

• No match found on the sanctions lists we checked (record type: sanctions-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; name search, no matching candidate] We searched the public sanctions datasets and found no matching candidate. A name search is not full compliance screening. checked 2026-09-18. OpenSanctions
• No match found in the debarment registers we checked (record type: debarment-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; name search, no matching candidate] We searched the public debarment datasets and found no matching candidate. Absence from these lists is a search result, not a certificate. checked 2026-09-18. OpenSanctions

• Main activity as recorded in the state business register (record type: registered-activity) [official record; status green] The business register records what the company is registered to do.

• Street address on file in the state register (record type: registered-address) [official record; status green] The address the company itself gave the register, so post and inspectors reach it there. checked 2026-09-18. https://www.nzbn.govt.nz/mynzbn/nzbndetails/9429046213266/
• Operating permit for the production site (record type: operating-permit) [official record; status green] Shows an authority issued a permit for an installation at this site for the activity named in the record.

• Recent annual report filed (record type: annual-return-no-accounts) [official record; status green] The company filed its annual return on time, so the register still sees an entity that meets its obligations.

New Zealand Companies Office (NZBN bulk data)
