At the same time, Schneider-Kreuznach plans to stay true to its origins. The company traditionally enjoys an excellent reputation for high-quality photo and cine lenses. It also produces professional MPTV filters for motion picture applications and photographic filters for the consumer market. “We have a strong market position with our B+W filters, while our FF-Prime and Cine Xenar lenses are ideal for cinematography. We are also considering whether we want to play a part in cine projection once more,” says Dr. Thomas Kessler. After a downturn in early 2016, the group’s revenue improved the following year in 2017. The company expects to grow again in 2018.
The Schneider Group specializes in developing, producing and manufacturing high-performance lenses and filter systems for industrial applications, cine and photography. It also offers high-quality precision mechanics and servo hydraulics. The company’s main brand "Schneider-Kreuznach" stands for state-of-the-art technology from Germany. The group has been a world market leader in the field of high-performance lenses for many years. The Schneider Group consists of Jos. Schneider Optische Werke GmbH (Bad Kreuznach, Göttingen) founded in Bad Kreuznach in 1913, and its subsidiaries Pentacon (Dresden), Schneider Optics (New York, Los Angeles) and Schneider Optical Technologies (Shenzhen). The Schneider Group has around 600 employees worldwide, including 390 at its German headquarters.
