A major attraction at NAMPO 2025 was STIHL’s iconic orange and white brand. The global leader in outdoor equipment showcased a powerful range of products, technological innovation, and practical solutions to South African farmers.

At their dynamic exhibit, the STIHL team demonstrated why they are the preferred choice for all farmers who rely on dependable and efficient equipment.

A brand of reliability now even more accessible

For decades, STIHL has been synonymous with rugged chainsaws and brush cutters that perform under even the toughest conditions. At NAMPO 2025, STIHL made their farm focus clear with the presentation of their complete Farmer Range, a selection of over 230 specially chosen products tailored for South African agricultural practices.

This equipment is not only built for power but also for simplicity. Most products in the range are designed with minimal electronics and straightforward mechanics so that farmers can perform repairs themselves without specialised tools. This is a massive benefit for commercial and remote farms where quick maintenance is crucial.

NAMPO 2025: New products steal the spotlight

One of the biggest highlights at the STIHL stand was the launch of the MSA 300, the most powerful battery-powered chainsaw in the STIHL range. This tool offers an alternative to petrol saws without compromising on power or endurance.

With a strong focus on efficiency, safety, and environmental friendliness, the MSA 300 generated keen interest among farmers looking to make their farm work greener.

STIHL’s new RE 130 PLUS high-pressure washer also garnered a lot of attention. This model is ideal for use on farms for cleaning tractors and equipment, as well as surfaces like patio floors and even solar panels. Its long lance and adjustable nozzles make it a versatile tool in any farmer’s daily toolkit.

Visitors to the STIHL stand at NAMPO had the chance to show off their skills during a woodchopping demonstration using the various types of axes available. It was one of many interactive activities that young and old could enjoy.

Why do farmers choose STIHL?

The answer lies in the combination of reliability, long lifespan, service networks, and technical support. STIHL South Africa has a nationwide network of authorised dealers offering products, parts, and training. This means farmers have access to maintenance and support when it’s most needed.

Moreover, STIHL products have excellent resale value, something not to be overlooked when considering investments in equipment.

A greener future with battery technology

STIHL is a global leader in battery technology for outdoor equipment. At NAMPO, their team explained the benefits of battery power to farmers: no fuel smells, lower noise levels, and less maintenance. For farmers working in areas where silence is essential such as game farms or near residential zones, this equipment is a real breakthrough.

With tools like the FSA 60 R brush cutter, HSA 56 hedge trimmer, and BGA 57 leaf blower, STIHL offers battery-powered solutions that are lightweight, quiet, yet extremely efficient.

STIHL’s role in sustainable farming

The agricultural sector is rapidly moving towards more sustainable practices, and STIHL is actively supporting this transition. They not only use environmentally friendly packaging materials and manufacturing processes, but also help farmers reduce their own environmental impact with energy-efficient products.

STIHL’s battery platform with tools that share the same battery means less waste, reduced fuel use, and lower total cost of ownership.

Interactive demonstrations and training

At NAMPO 2025, STIHL offered more than just a display. Their stand was an interactive experience space where prospective customers could test equipment, ask questions, and receive training. Demonstrations of chain sharpening, maintenance, and safe handling equipped farmers with practical knowledge they could immediately apply on their own farms. This hands-on approach reflects STIHL’s commitment to not only sell products but to empower the people who use them.

STIHL South Africa’s participation at NAMPO 2025 once again proved why they are regarded as a trusted partner to the farming community. With a product range tailored for farm environments, technological innovation aimed at the future, and a support structure that reaches all the way to farm level, STIHL remains a key player in the success of South African agriculture.
