STIHL makes a lasting mark at EQUIP Expo 2025 with innovation and immersive experiences

With bold experiences and cutting-edge tools, STIHL energized EQUIP Expo and set the tone for Spring 2026.

STIHL Inc. wrapped up a dynamic showing at EQUIP Expo 2025, the premier green industry trade show held at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. With exciting product launches, bold customer experiences and a continued focus on innovation and community, STIHL left attendees energized and inspired for Spring 2026.

Products that power what’s possible

At the indoor booth and outdoor demo area, attendees explored STIHL’s latest gas and battery solutions — underscoring the brand’s commitment to providing the right power for the right job and offering hands-on access to STIHL product experts. Some of the newest STIHL innovations featured at EQUIP Expo included:

• The BGA 280 battery-powered backpack blower stands out as the best-in-class battery backpack blower. Built for professionals and large-property homeowners who demand performance without the noise, this blower is 30% quieter than its gas equivalent.
• The CM 6 ProPower Hub Mobile is trailer-ready, field-approved and built for professionals who need to charge on-the-go. Users can plug in up to six STIHL chargers to a 15A outlet and charge up to 24 AP 300 S batteries in just 8 hours — no trailer modifications required.
• The WP 900 gasoline water pump moves over 400 gallons per minute — proving that when it comes to raw power and portability, gas still has room to innovate. The lightest-in-class, it’s designed for heavy-duty performance, so your crew can stay focused on the job, not the equipment.
• The TSA 500 battery-powered cut-off saw marks the next evolution in cordless cutting for construction pros — delivering over 30% more power and running four times quieter than the industry-standard TS 420. With a 14” wheel, 4.9” cutting depth and 5 kW of power, it delivers clean, precise cuts and professional-grade performance — no gas required.

Unforgettable customer experiences

STIHL kept the excitement high with bold, first-of-their-kind customer activations that drew crowds throughout the week. Fans showed their passion permanently at the STIHL Inked Tattoo Pop-Up, where Louisville tattoo artist Patrik Carter inked attendees on the spot with one-of-a-kind STIHL-branded tattoo designs.

The energy continued with a $5,000 dealer giveaway, celebrating STIHL’s trusted dealer network and educational panels and demos led by Team STIHL ambassadors and industry pros. Attendees gained insights on the shift to battery power and emerging industry trends while hundreds tested STIHL tools firsthand in the outdoor demo area.
