The High Court of Justice made a winding-up order against Huntalma Ltd on 24 June 2026, placing the Stockton-on-Tees construction and labour-supply company into compulsory liquidation less than two years after it was first registered at Companies House. Compulsory liquidation is a court-ordered process in which a company's assets are realised and distributed to creditors.
The case was filed under number 003602 of 2026. A winding-up petition had been lodged on 8 May 2026, roughly seven weeks before the order was sealed. A winding-up petition is a court filing by a creditor asking a judge to make such an order; the petition itself does not place a company into liquidation, only the subsequent order does.
The company
Huntalma Ltd was incorporated on 6 October 2024 under the name Proconstructbuild Limited, which it carried until 13 December 2024 when it changed to its final trading name. Its registered office is at Track House, Fast Track House Pearson Way, Thornaby, Stockton-on-Tees, TS17 6PT. The company operated in two sectors recorded at Companies House: other construction installation, and the supply of temporary workers through labour agencies.
The liquidator
The Official Receiver, the civil servant of the Insolvency Service who automatically takes office as liquidator on most winding-up orders, was appointed on 24 June 2026, the same date as the order. The Official Receiver named in the notice is C Megram, contactable at PO Box 16646, Birmingham, B2 2PW, by telephone on 0300 678 0016, or by email at NorthEast.OR@insolvency.gov.uk.
The directors
Two directors appear on the Companies House record. Kyle Alexander Lax was appointed on 11 December 2024 and remained a director at the time of the order. Denis Sorodoc was a director from incorporation on 6 October 2024 but resigned on 12 December 2024, one day before the company changed its name.
Accounts and charges
No accounts had been filed by the time of the order. The company's first accounts were not due until 6 July 2026, a date that falls after the winding-up order was made. No secured charges were registered against Huntalma Ltd at Companies House.
Common questions
Are you owed money by Huntalma Limited?
The court has placed the company in compulsory liquidation. The Official Receiver typically takes office as liquidator unless creditors nominate a licensed insolvency practitioner. Submit your claim using the Official Receiver's online proof-of-debt service or by post; details appear on the case page at gov.uk/insolvency-service. Read more about proof of debt.
Did you work at Huntalma Limited?
On a winding-up order, employees are usually dismissed immediately. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The Official Receiver will provide RP1 case-reference numbers and the date of insolvency you need to start the claim. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Huntalma Limited?
Customers rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Huntalma Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the winding-up order is made. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions. The Official Receiver also has a statutory duty to investigate director conduct and report under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
