Wilhelm STOLL Maschinenfabrik GmbH was founded in 1878 in Luckenwalde near Berlin. In 1946, STOLL relocated to Broistedt in Lower Saxony, later a part of Lengede near Hanover, in the building of a former sugar factory.
For decades, STOLL was a household name for sugar beet harvesters and haymaking machinery. Front loaders for tractors have been included in the product range since 1965.
When Freudendahl Invest A/S took over the shares in 1999, the company decided to move away from sugar beet technology. In the years that followed, the production of the haymaking machinery was transferred to the sister company JF in Denmark, so that the company could focus all its efforts on the development and production of front loaders in Lengede.
STOLL has been one of the leading manufacturers of front loaders in the world for many years. By focusing on this segment as well as numerous innovations and further developments, STOLL has significantly strengthened its position and expertise in recent years. Its impressive portfolio contains a wide variety of products.
The latest STOLL ProfiLine FZ/FS front loader technology for tractors with 50 up to 300 hp was successively introduced between November 2007 to May 2009. The CompactLine was then launched in May 2009. It was the first time STOLL offered a range of loaders for compact tractors from 20-50 hp. Another series was then launched in May 2010: the STOLL EcoLine for tractors from 50-110 hp.
At the beginning of 2013, STOLL joined the Hamburg-based DMB – Deutsche Mittelstand Beteiligungen. This investor provided new impetus in development and production. Consequently, the successor to the EcoLine was already available from the summer of 2015 in the form of the ClassicLine. Even stronger, more stable, reliable and versatile: The new ClassicLine is a STOLL for all situations. This all-rounder fits on numerous tractors and is suitable for all purposes thanks to its wide range of implements.
Since 2015, in keeping with its market strategy, STOLL has been a shareholder in KMW (Kansas, USA), one of North America’s leading front loader manufacturers.
