Positive gaps mean men were paid more; negative gaps mean women were paid more. These figures are employer-reported and describe the workforce distribution, not equal pay for the same job. The company link uses the exact Companies House number supplied by the service.

Reported terms and dispute process
  1. Standard payment terms

    Xaar’s standard terms are 60 days following the end of the month. https://www.xaar.com/media/2346/xaar-terms-and-conditions-of-purchase-v7-oct20.pdf

    However there are agreements with many suppliers where the terms differ from Xaar’s standard terms, and are in most cases shorter.

  2. Other payment-term information

    n/a

  3. Dispute resolution process

    Xaar is committed to building and maintaining strong relationships with our suppliers and seeks to resolve invoice queries/disputes with suppliers as quickly as possible.
    The majority of Xaar’s supplier relationships are covered by our standard terms and conditions. The dispute resolution process in these cases will be as stated below.
    Most invoices are issued against a Xaar purchase order. Queries for these invoices are passed by Accounts Payable to the Purchasing department, which is responsible for raising Purchase Orders with suppliers, for investigation and resolution.
    For any non-purchase order invoices, Accounts Payable will either raise queries with suppliers directly or will work in collaboration with the internal invoice owner in order to resolve with the supplier.
    Where there is a specific agreement in place with a supplier, a specified dispute resolution clause will be included in the agreement. The exact wording of the clause will vary but the process is likely to be that Xaar and the supplier will attempt to settle the dispute themselves; if no resolution is found then it will be taken to an independent body to resolve; and then to Court if the dispute cannot be resolved.

i

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.

A registry entry records what the organisation declared in its statement. It is not an independent audit. Group statements can cover several companies; BritDB preserves each exact source-supplied company-number link and excludes approver names and email addresses.

This is a candidate association, not an official Companies House link. The ICO file supplies no company number. The organisation name and postcode uniquely matched this company in the current snapshot. BritDB excludes all DPO contact fields and does not publish unmatched personal entries.

!

This is an exact normalised company-name match, not a registrar-confirmed ownership link. Another legal entity can have the same or a very similar name. UKIPO data is a historical 2018 snapshot; verify the owner and current status before relying on it.

PSC source and official link →

No PSC entry for this company was present in the imported snapshot.

i

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.

09 Charity register

Charity Commission links

Snapshot 25 August 2026
CCEW

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.

i

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.

10 Northern Ireland charity register

CCNI exact company links

Snapshot 25 August 2026
CCNI

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.

i

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.

11 Sanctions screening

UK Sanctions List

Report 28 August 2026
UKSL

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.

12 Public procurement

Find a Tender links

Snapshot 22 August 2026
FTS

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.

i

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.

13 Environmental register

Environment Agency waste registrations

Snapshot 25 August 2026
EA

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.

i

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.
