STIHL Catalogue / Brochure

STIHL was founded in Germany in 1926 by Andreas Stihl, who designed an electric chainsaw and went on to pioneer modern portable forestry and gardening power equipment.

The brand remains fully under the ownership of the Stihl family through the STIHL Holding AG & Co. KG corporate group, headquartered in Waiblingen, Germany. While original design and core development remain firmly rooted in Germany, STIHL operates production facilities across multiple countries worldwide, including Germany, the United States, Brazil, Switzerland, Austria, and China, serving professional and domestic forestry and gardening markets.
