At law, a company is a separate and distinct legal entity from its owners and controllers. As such, the company is responsible for the payment of its debts.
A director has no personal liability for company debt however, the protection of a company structure is often signed away to suppliers who insist on a personal guarantee before agreeing to provide goods or services on credit.
