Are still uk going the same way of the dodo. the people that are in charge of still uk are the same people that were in charge at DAC,yes i know that makes no sense seen as how DAC went bust. So after roughly 12 months plus in charge they have introduced the same cost cutting measures tried at DAC,which by the way didn`t work, So does history repeat it`s self or will DAC STILL prevale we will have to wait and see.
Quote from one of there engineers "I carn`t understand why we don`t run the company like the rest of the word" Seems like STILL UK is being run like a dealer rather than part of a global company. Make your own minds up but if I were the germans I would be looking into
why the good name of STILL is being erroded.

I have a question, how is Still considered as a Global company? They are not a player in North America, one of the largest markets in the world.

He did say "part of a Global company" which the parent company KION is as they also own Linde, OM and just recently Baoli.
