In 1992 Stihl acquired the garden equipment manufacturer Viking. They were based in the Austrian Tyrol and under the leadership of Dr Nikolas Stihl (Grandson of the group founder), they expanded rapidly.

In the 2000’s Stihls fantastic innovation carries on, introducing the multi-tool concept that is currently known today as the KombiSystem. It wasn’t until 2009 that Stihl decided to enter the cordless power tool market. They released two standard setting hedge trimmers which were praised by an array of gardeners.

Stihl’s innovation has lead to a number of key features being produced. Such as automatic chain oiling, centrifugal clutch, Ematic system, ElastoStart system, 4-mix technology, Ergo Start and Anti-vibration systems all within their products.

The Stihl name has stood for revolutionary technology and innovative ideas ever since the firm was founded. Stihl garden machinery is regarded as probably the number 1 brand in the world today.
