Volvo values maintained at Greener Composting Ltd
Since this family-run business purchased a Volvo BM4200 for its farming activities back in 1983, Greener Composting Ltd carries on a tradition of owning and operating Volvo machines with a new Volvo L70H loading shovel.
After a chance visit to the Volvo BM stand at a trade exhibition, held at the Royal Showground, the company that would become Greener Composting Ltd began their association with Volvo when Andrew Ryman purchased a six-tonne BM4200 loading shovel. “My father bought the machine to work on our 1000 acre farm here on the outskirts of Lichfield,” explains Managing Director, Richard Ryman. “He was so impressed with what the machine could do that he purchased a second machine; which, by this time, had become an L30.” This particular machine is still running to this day on the family’s farm.

It was in 2004 that WJ & AJ Ryman diversified its agricultural activities, and Greener Composting Ltd was established to handle and process green waste. “Back then, we saw a niche in the market for green waste recycling and composting. We started taking in material from the local authorities, tree surgeons and the like, creating a bespoke area on the farm for this activity,” continues Richard. “As the business took off, we invested in a new L70F in 2008 to spearhead this activity; this gave us a big step-up in production.”
