About Us
Our Story — Tecnocap
At Tecnocap, we believe that preserving food should be as rewarding as the harvest itself. Our journey began over 30 years ago, when a group of passionate entrepreneurs set out to bring the American tradition of home canning to Europe. After visiting the Midwest, they invested in the machines needed to produce home canning products near the Amalfi Coast. As a result, Tecnocap has grown into one of the world’s largest metal closure manufacturers. Through time and further investment in innovations, we grew to become the trusted supplier for the major home canning brands.
Today, we proudly manufacture and supply home canning products in the U.S., bringing industrial know-how and long-term vision to a category that deserves lasting quality. Driven by our passion to continue to innovate in US home canning and supported by a strategic investment from Anchor Hocking, we feel that it is time for a greater focus on American home canning consumers.
Developing our own brand is our next chapter — starting in 2026, we are transitioning into this new brand to better serve the evolving needs of today’s home canners.
This strategic shift is designed to fuel long-term sales growth by strengthening our brand identity, expanding our retail presence, and offering a more differentiated product line.
With the new brand launch, we’re introducing a range of options to strengthen our retail partners’ position in the category:
Expanded product range
More sizes, styles, and open stock options to serve everyone from small-batch crafters to high-volume preservers.
Improved operations flexibility
U.S.-based manufacturing is now even more agile with our recent investment in a new production and logistics warehouse near our Glen Dale headquarters, enabling faster order fulfillment, greater capacity, and streamlined distribution.
Commitment to workforce expansion
To meet rising demand, we are actively expanding our production team, creating more American jobs while ensuring consistent supply and service.
Stronger vendor quality monitoring
Enhanced oversight ensures that every component meets the highest standards for safety and performance.
Improved gasket materials
New, environmentally sustainable gasket formulations eliminate unnecessary colorants and enhance shelf life for a better, longer-lasting seal.
Sustainable materials & social awareness
Our product design emphasizes eco-friendly materials and packaging, and we are committed to operating responsibly with attention to environmental impact, labor practices, and community engagement.
Deeper commitment to customer care
Our in-house team is here to guide customers through every step — from clear, professional canning instructions for beginners to hands-on support with troubleshooting, so even first-time canners can preserve with confidence.
Comprehensive Digital Brand Strategy
We will launch a dedicated website domain and establish a presence on key social media platforms to enhance brand visibility, engage with consumers, and provide educational resources. This digital approach will support sales growth by fostering community and ensuring accessibility.
From seasoned homesteaders to first-time canners, we provide dependable quality, sustainable materials, and responsive service.
Backed by decades of expertise and a 99.96% success rate, we stand behind every jar and closure.
This strategic move is more than a canning brand — it’s a community rooted in tradition, self-reliance, and the joy of preserving what matters most.
