In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The Company negotiates and agrees payment terms with its third party suppliers as part of its procurement process and as a result payment terms can vary by contract and by supplier. Standard preferred payment terms are 90 days following receipt of invoice. The numbers presented above include payments to affiliate companies, with the most common payment term being last working day of 2nd month following month of invoice.
Dispute resolution
Mexichem UK Limited has a dedicated Accounts Payable helpdesk in the event of a dispute with a supplier that offers them support through to query resolution. This query can be raised via email at [email protected]. If required, the query is then forwarded to the buyer or authorised representative of Mexichem UK Limited who will be tasked to reach agreement with the vendor. If the dispute is over payment terms, this will be investigated alongside the review of signed acceptance of engagement contracts, supply agreements or acceptance of the standard terms and conditions on purchase orders.
Other information
The Company has three prescheduled payment runs for all approved invoices - 1st business day, 10th business day and last business day of the month. The regular payment runs minimise the risk of overdue payments on vendor accounts.

What a 58-day cycle ties up
Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 58-day vs a 0-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act lets a supplier charge statutory interest and fixed compensation on invoices paid past agreed terms. Work out what a late invoice is worth → Whether it applies depends on your contract — check with an adviser.

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 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
