About OPUS INSTRUMENTS LTD

Company type and jurisdiction

OPUS INSTRUMENTS LTD is a private company limited by shares. Its owners (shareholders) are only liable for its debts up to the value of their shares, it must have at least one director, and its shares cannot be offered to the public. Its company number 06456717 shows it was registered in England and Wales, so its records are kept by Companies House in Cardiff. It has been on the register for 18 years and 10 months.

What OPUS INSTRUMENTS LTD does

On the public register, OPUS INSTRUMENTS LTD lists its activity using the UK Standard Industrial Classification (SIC 2007): manufacture of optical precision instruments (26701). This places it in the manufacturing section of the economy. SIC codes describe what a company says it does; they are not a licence and are not checked by Companies House. See other companies with the same SIC code.

Where OPUS INSTRUMENTS LTD is registered

Its registered office is in Cambridge (postcode district CB4). The registered office is the official address for letters from Companies House, HMRC and the courts. It must be in the same UK jurisdiction where the company was registered, but it does not have to be where the business trades: many companies use their accountant's or a formation agent's address.
