The company STIHL celebrates one hundred years of history, consolidating its leadership in the professional tools sector thanks to its constant innovation and a firm commitment to sustainability and battery technology.

Since its foundation, STIHL has maintained an unbreakable bond with the forestry, agricultural, landscaping, and gardening sectors, adapting to changing market needs. The company has evolved from robust equipment for demanding conditions to smart and connected solutions, prioritizing efficiency, quiet operation, and sustainability, especially with the rise of battery technology.

"Battery technology has also entered the most professional sectors, offering a more efficient, quieter, and more sustainable way of working, with new services that allow machines to be tested in real conditions and their performance directly assessed in daily work, before purchase."

A fundamental pillar in STIHL's success has been its extensive network of specialized distributors. These professionals not only market machinery but also offer expert advice and comprehensive service, which has been crucial for the evolution of products such as brushcutters, improving user comfort and reducing physical effort.
In Spain, STIHL began its operations in 1985, establishing a solid relationship with the sector through more than 1,000 specialized sales points. Its logistics facilities in Torres de la Alameda (Madrid), operational since 1992 and expanded in 2018 with an investment of 10 million euros, demonstrate its commitment to modernization and support for its network. Additionally, the STIHL Training center trains over 1,000 professionals annually, raising the technical level of the sector.
In the Canary Islands, STIHL's presence dates back more than four decades, with deeply rooted distributors such as Sagrera Canarias, active since 1970, and Agroisleña Suministros on the island of La Palma, with over 45 years of experience. This local history has been essential for providing versatile and efficient machinery, from chainsaws to blowers, adapted to the needs of professionals in the archipelago.
