EDITORIAL LETTER Impressive events lined up... Hello, and welcome to Edition 35 of THE VOICE magazine - the voice of SMT in Great Britain.
We have an impressive line-up of events planned for this year, including the return of our unique Live it. Dig it. demo days. These events give you the opportunity to test drive a wide range of Volvo machines in a real-life setting. We look forward to seeing many of you there, please do register early as places are limited. You can find out more about these events on pages 32–33.
We will also be attending Plantworx on 11–13 June in the new location of the East of England Showground, Peterborough. We will be revealing the line-up for this event nearer the time, so keep an eye on social media or sign up to our email newsletter to be the first to hear the latest news.
In this edition we visit E & JW Glendinning, who have taken delivery of the first Rigid Hauler in GB. The R70D has been put to work hauling blasted material to their primary crusher and will deliver approximately 250,000 tonnes of material per year. You can read more about this on pages 20–23.
We have also recently delivered more of the new EW240E Material Handlers. Portland Stone have taken delivery of one of these, which is working on the Isle of Portland at the company’s Waste Recycling Facility (pages 10–11), while H&H Waste Management have put theirs to work alongside a new L180H at their recently acquired waste handling facility located in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire (pages 28–29).
As well as our usual round up of news, we’re also pleased to welcome several new customers who have recently bought Volvo machines for the first time, including Total Reclaims Demolition and Calder Masonry. We look forward to supporting these customers throughout the lifetime of their machines.
I hope you enjoy reading the latest edition of THE VOICE. It is very much your magazine so if there is anything you would like to see more of, please let me know or tweet me @AmyMetcalfeIM
