The Hasenclever Family, HASCO 2026 SPE Mold Technologies Division Scholarship
HASCO has been a pioneer in the moldmaking industry for over 100 years.

The SPE Mold Technologies Division has announced that the 2026 Scholarship fund has been named the “The Hasenclever Family, HASCO 2026 SPE Mold Technologies Division Scholarship.”
Founded in Lüdenscheid, Germany, in 1924 by Hugo Hasenclever, HASCO is an international leading supplier of modular standard mold units and accessories. The company’s invention and patenting of the modular standard mold system in 1960 was a milestone in the history of moldmaking. The basic idea of standardization revolutionized moldmaking worldwide and is still one of the key success factors.
HASCO has been a proud sponsor and contributor to the SPE and the Mold Technologies Division for many years. With that, the SPE MTD is excited to honor HASCO by naming the 2026 scholarship to recognize the HASCO family and organization for all their continued support and generosity for the future of the moldmaking industry.
