Maximum contractual payment information
The maximum contractual payment period set out in the Company’s response to question 2E is very much a one-off and the Company has not negotiated any other payment terms of that order of magnitude.
Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
All qualifying contracts can be categorised as follows
Raw Material- 30 days from invoice date
Goods For Resale- 60 days from invoice date
Packaging- 30 days end of month
General Purchasing - 60 days from invoice date
Logistics - 60 days from invoice date
Intercompany- 30 days end of month - Other payment-term information
The Company does not currently have in place a system to capture for all invoices the date of receipt of each invoice. As a consequence the Company has decided to use as the start date the date of invoice.
Similarly, the Company’s systems do not have the functionality to identify for all invoices the actual date that the supplier received payment. Also, the Company’s payment systems are set up only to pay invoices on the due date for payment. Accordingly, in its calculation of the time taken to pay each invoice, the Company has added (in accordance with the UK Government’s guidance) the standard time it takes for a payment to clear in the supplier’s bank account (depending on the method of payment).
This approach has no doubt contributed to an artificial inflating of the number of days it takes to pay invoices. Accordingly, this should be borne in mind when reviewing the Company’s responses to 1A, 1B and 1C above.
Regarding the response to question 1C, if the Company was able to re-set the date of payment 3 days earlier than the payment due date (to ensure each supplier received payment of its invoice in cleared funds), then the actual statistic would be reduced to 14 % for this reporting period. - Dispute resolution process
The Company is committed to dealing with its suppliers in a fair, honest and professional manner while seeking best value for the business. We seek to resolve queries as quickly as possible to everyone’s satisfaction prior to payment being made. Our suppliers can contact AP department via email: APBrnoUK@ppg.com and should receive reply within 2 working days. These contact details can be found on the purchase orders

This is a company-submitted statutory disclosure, not a credit rating. BritDB preserves the reporting period and links the report only through the Companies House number supplied by the official service. Percentages describe payments made during that period and may change in later reports.

These are candidate company associations. The public-register downloads do not supply Companies House numbers. BritDB requires one unique exact holder-name and postcode match; the regulated site may differ from the registered office, so verify the record at source.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
07 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
08 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
09 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
10 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
11 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
