Capabilities
CS Cosmos STIHL provides metal stamping, deep drawing, welding, finishing, and assembly under one roof. OEMs get a complete metal-forming partner — from DFM and tooling through finished, assembled components — backed by an ISO 9001-aligned quality system and 9M+ annual units of capacity.
CS Cosmos STIHL is a vertically integrated metal-forming manufacturer. Cutting, stamping, deep drawing, welding, finishing, and assembly all happen in one facility under one quality system — so OEMs get finished, assembled components from a single accountable partner instead of coordinating across vendors.
