/in , /by

Martin Lishman Ltd Celebrates 50 Years of Innovation: 2025 marks a milestone year for Martin Lishman Ltd as the company celebrates 50 years of innovation in the agricultural sector. Since 1975, this family-run business has been at the forefront of developing cutting-edge solutions for crop storage, quality control, and precision farming, helping farmers worldwide improve efficiency and sustainability.

The journey began with a revolutionary idea—a cost-effective method to cool stored grain at a time when ventilation systems were non-existent. The result was the development of the industry-renowned Pile-Dry Pedestals, which transformed grain storage by significantly reducing spoilage and improving quality. This innovation laid the foundation for a growing portfolio of solutions that now spans post-harvest technology, potato quality control, compact spraying systems, and precision agriculture tools.

Today, Martin Lishman solutions are used in over 52 countries, reinforcing its global impact in sustainable farming. In line with celebrating 50 years, this year also marks one of the biggest product updates in the company’s history – a brand-new Barn Owl Wireless Web Application, delivering a whole host of new grain store management features tailored to the needs of modern farming.

The company’s expertise in manufacturing agricultural sprayers has also played a pivotal role in its expansion into the amenity industry. Leveraging years of experience, Martin Lishman Ltd has developed a series of sprayers that are now favoured by many leading sports clubs and facilities, further demonstrating its ability to innovate and adapt to industry needs.

Green-tech Supports Regenerative Forestry Ltd

/in , /by

Green-tech Supports Regenerative Forestry Ltd: Oakcutts Wood, located in the heart of Hampshire, is undergoing an ecological transformation. Intervention was required to restore its natural balance. Non-native species of Spruce and Larch were removed to make way for native tree planting, which aims to enhance biodiversity and create a resilient ecosystem for future generations.

Regenerative Forestry Ltd specialises in woodland management and provides professional consultancy across Southern England. Their expertise in ecological restoration made them the ideal partner for managing this woodland sensitively to ensure its resilience.

The Project

The goal of the restoration project was to restock Oakcutts Wood with native tree species, promoting biodiversity and ensuring the long-term health of the woodland. Protecting these young saplings during their establishment phase was paramount, as local wildlife, including roe and muntjac deer, posed a significant challenge.

Regenerative Forestry Ltd turned to Green-tech for the products and support to ensure the project’s success. Green-tech is a leading tree planting and protection solutions supplier and a trusted partner for forestry professionals across the UK. It provides innovative products that support long-term environmental health.

Products Used

To address the project’s specific challenges, Green-tech supplied the following essential products, chosen for their durability, effectiveness, and alignment with the project’s ecological goals.

  • 7500 Tubex Standard Plus Tree Shelters (1.2m): These tree shelters are specifically designed to protect young saplings from browsing animals like roe and muntjac deer. In addition to providing physical protection, they create a microclimate that promotes healthy growth.
  • 7500 1.35m Softwood Stakes: Treated softwood stakes were used to securely support the tree shelters, ensuring they remained stable in varying weather conditions.

The Outcome

The Oakcutts Wood restoration project demonstrates the power of collaboration in achieving environmental sustainability. With Green-tech’s high-quality products and Regenerative Forestry expertise, the young trees are well-protected, setting the stage for a thriving and biodiverse woodland.

Colin Corkhill, owner of Regenerative Forestry Ltd, comments, “I have worked with Key Account Manager George Barton for three planting seasons. I find his swift responses and ease of ordering a pleasure and vital to providing a smooth and professional service to my clients.”
