Summary
Strainsense Ltd from Milton Keynes UK is a small, active company founded 22 years ago in 2002. Employing 10 people, it holds £2,948,995 in assets and operates from a real address, managed by three directors and two owners, with a solo founder at its core. The company regularly imports and exports optical and medical tools and devices, with 283 months of import activity and 141 months of export activity recorded.
The company’s website showcases a wide range of sensors, instrumentation, and data acquisition products. It's clear they are not an e-commerce site, but rather a distributor or supplier of these components, catering to industries like automotive, aerospace, and industrial condition monitoring. The site details various sensors, including accelerometers, force sensors, pressure sensors, and signal conditioning systems, alongside data acquisition systems and power analyzers. They even have a new online store, Strainsense.Store, allowing customers to view stock levels and configure parts.
Financially, Strainsense Ltd presents a mixed picture. Cash bank on hand increased by a substantial 31% to £2.3 million, a positive sign of liquidity. However, net assets grew by a more modest 41% to £2.2 million, suggesting increased liabilities. Trade debtors remained relatively stable, while other creditors decreased slightly. The company’s small size—meeting two of three conditions for being classified as small—allows for flexibility, but the increase in bank borrowings should be monitored. The company is exempt from an audit, so the financial statements are unaudited.
It seems Strainsense Ltd is a stable, established business, but the increase in debt should be something to keep an eye on. The company's expertise in sensors and instrumentation positions it well in specialized markets, but it’s unclear if the business is growing fast enough to keep pace with its rising expenses.
Registered in England/Wales under the registration number 04459986, with a registered address at MK8 0JP, England, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, Unit 3, Joplin Court Sovereign Business Park, Crownhill.
