A brace of Volvos for Roy Cowie LBS Ltd S
Roy Cowie LBS Ltd of Banchory, Aberdeenshire
has purchased a pair of Volvo compact
excavators for the first time for its hard landscaping and hire divisions.
pecialising in hard and soft landscaping, tree surgery and grounds maintenance covering the north east of Scotland Roy Cowie LBS (Land Based Services) Ltd has opted for two new Volvo EC18C compact
excavators replacing similar sized competitive machines. “We took a look at what was available at this year’s Scot Plant exhibition and with my own experience of operating Volvo machines in the past and what we looked at, our preference was to opt for the Volvo product,” comments Contracts Manager Cameron Paterson.
A single piece engine hood provides unobstructed access to all the engine components whilst the instrument panel provides at-a-glance monitoring of all key functions. The cab’s easy to clean flat floor panel lifts for access to hydraulics and main control valve. Both machines have been supplied with Harford hydraulic quick hitches which were launched for the first time on the Volvo stand at this year’s Scot Plant exhibition.
Both units will be put to work supporting the company’s squads of hard and soft landscapers on a whole range of commercial and domestic contracts across the north east of Scotland, as well as in and around the Royal Estate at Balmoral. The machines can also be available for local hire.
Roy Cowie LBS Ltd is based in Banchory Aberdeenshire and employs 50 personnel for its landscaping, tree surgery, domestic horticultural machine repairs, servicing and sales divisions. In the winter months the company also undertakes snow clearing contracts for the private and public sectors. The company has also held the Royal Warrant for the past eight years for landscaping services on the Royal Balmoral Estate.
