The read · computed from their figures
Lucite International UK Limited's H1 2026 filing puts their average at 34 days against stated terms of 120 days; 90% of invoices were paid outside agreed terms and 8% took 61 days or longer. Filed 22 Apr 2026.
The pattern is steady — their reported average moves within about ±2 days period to period.
On the latest reported averages: Faster than 77% of the 977 large companies reporting in manufacturing.
That is 16 statutory periods on record (earliest H2 2018) — a historical record, not a promise for a new invoice.
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The standard terms of payment are different for different spend categories for example, 60 days after date of invoice for Raw Materials, or immediate payment for duty and import costs. In all categories, terms of payment can, by exception, be varied from the standard payment terms by agreement between the seller and the buyer.
Dispute resolution
If a supplier raises a query in respect of non-payment of an invoice, it would initially be handled by accounts payable. If necessary the accounts payable team will direct the query to the most relevant business area within Mitsubishi Chemical UK Limited (for example Purchasing) to resolve this promptly.

How UK payment reporting works
What is a Payment Practices Report?
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
How often is this data updated?
Is this official government data?
How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.
The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
