Husqvarna ' s pioneering approach
to chainsaws and lawnmowers
Husqvarna boasts the market ' s widest, most innovative and powerful range of machinery and tools for the forest, garden, park, construction and stone industries. For over 327 years Husqvarna has applied ' out of the box ' thinking, which is well exemplified by the development of Husqvarna ' s first chainsaw. Existing chainsaws at the time caused problems with noise pollution. By using motorcycle muffler technology, which was developed in-house, the noise level of the Husqvarna 90 was cut down to half that of the contemporary competition. Throughout the years, Husqvarna has proved its technological leadership by introducing ground-breaking and award-winning solutions and products for the forestry industry, such as:
