As a family business, we realize that we have a responsibility to keep moving forward in a world which is developing at a faster and faster rate and in which the half-life of forecasts is becoming increasingly shorter. As the Schaeffler Group, we must be competitive and work together to achieve our goals. We have worked hard to get to the top; and the three strong brands - INA, LuK and FAG - have grown together to form the Schaeffler Group. We are committed to succeeding, to ensuring sustainability in our actions and to being passionate about our company: “Together we move the world.”

We further the competence of our employees and rely on targeted investments in research and development. We base our decisions on customers’ expectations. Our customers demand proximity in growing and newly developing markets. Technical and business expertise as well as the dedication of our excellent employees have always been a basis for our success, as have been our regional ties that have never lost sight of the global picture.

Not only has our development been characterized by responsible management and consistent company development, we have also actively designed the connection between the company history and the corporate culture. We cultivate exceptional commitment, mutual trust and reliability, which has resulted in powerful and sustainable results.

In the spirit of a “family business”, the shareholders and management of the Schaeffler Group see it as their task to continue to develop the company responsibly and successfully.
