Stahlgruber Gesellschafter-Stiftung focuses on hands-on vocational, technical, and academic training in the automotive, tire/vulcanization, and plastics/rubber sectors, with a strong emphasis on sustainable materials use and circularity. It appears to support specialized training centers, student labs, and talent development for students, apprentices, instructors, and practitioners in Germany and occasionally Poland or other international settings. The foundation is especially distinctive for backing niche trade skills like Vulkaniseur-Handwerk and for funding applied education that connects industry practice with environmental sustainability.
Mix of subsidized trainings, project-based grants, and merit-based scholarships; support is often targeted to specific programs, equipment, or course costs rather than open-ended operating funding. Grants are typically modest to mid-sized, with scholarship support documented at about €300 per month and project grants often in the four-figure range; training support is frequently delivered through partner sites and selected institutions.

Expect a highly specialized, program-linked process rather than a broad open call. Strong applications will directly tie the request to vulcanization, rubber/polymer technology, plastics sustainability, or vocational training, and should clearly specify the training, equipment, or student-project outcome; check the foundation website for scholarship criteria and project submission details, and be prepared for Germany-based eligibility unless the project-based program explicitly allows international partners.
