For the SCHAEFFLER GROUP, industrial photographer DOMINIK OBERTREIS was once again on the road at various plants in Germany and abroad to photograph an extensive pool of images across many locations and departments. Domink Obertreis: “As Schaeffler has an incredibly broad base in the mechanical engineering industry, there were very different locations and therefore a large number of models and employees in front of the camera during this time.”

Schaeffler AG, based in Herzogenaurach, is a listed German supplier to the automotive and mechanical engineering industry. And Schaeffler is still on track in the transition year 2024. In the first nine months of 2024, revenue increased by 1.0% at constant currency to EUR 12,233 million (prior year: EUR 12,270 million). In the first nine months of the year, the Europe (0.5 percent), Americas (5.2 percent), and Asia/Pacific (2.0 percent) regions reported revenue growth excluding the impact of currency translation, while revenue in the Greater China region was 3.3 percent below the prior year level excluding the impact of currency translation.

“The Schaeffler Group performed well in the first nine months of 2024 and maintained the prior year's revenue level in challenging times. The Automotive Technologies division achieved an order intake of 4.4 billion euros in e-mobility, the Vehicle Lifetime Solutions division once again exceeded the excellent result of the prior year period, partially offsetting the decline in revenue and earnings at Bearings & Industrial Solutions. In view of the challenging environment, the result for the third quarter of 2024 is acceptable. This is all the more true as we completed the acquisition of Vitesco as planned on October 1,” said Klaus Rosenfeld, CEO of Schaeffler AG.

Paolo Rosenberg from Localhero was responsible for the smooth organization of so many locations, people and models.

From soy to peas : “One of the most important findings of scientific research is that peas are green. Which, of course, we already knew. Just like grass, Kermit the Frog and the traffic light now and then. But seriously. Pea protein is one of the most environmentally friendly proteins around. First of all, peas don’t need a particularly warm climate to grow, which is a significant difference to soy. But don’t get us wrong : We love soy beans. They are healthy and tasty. But the same doesn’t go for the soy industry.
 
A large part of the soy beans we eat is grown on land that belonged to a tropical rain forest not too long ago. The demand for soy has increased enormously. That’s why local farmers are desperately in search of new land to plant soy.” says MEATLESS FARM.

Small peas, big impact. Say yes to peas. Meatless Farm makes it clear just how easy it can be to trust in the power of their protein and dare to take a step in the right direction. Daniel Gebhart de Koekkoek photographed the story of a space fan and his wife. She pops the question… in favor of the pea. Both say YES, I do. And LUNIK produced the motifs for the love story about peas.

Meatless Farm is a British company that manufactures vegan, plant-based meat, which is meanwhile mainly made from pea protein. It was founded in 2016 by Morten Toft Bech, a Danish entrepreneur and former trader. As of October 2020, Meatless Farm employs 100 people in Leeds, Amsterdam, New York, and Singapore.

The company started production in 2018, and initially sold its products in British supermarkets. In September 2019, Meatless Farm expanded to the United States through a partnership with American supermarket Whole Foods. In October, its burger became the first plant-based burger to be added to the menu of British pub chain Wetherspoons.

In September 2020, Meatless Farm secured £24m in funding. The company had previously raised £14m from investors including Channel 4.
