When Alfred Fain founded a small Rhode Island tire store in 1924 at the time no one could have predicted how Teknor Apex would become an international custom compounder sought out by companies around the world. After a nearly hundredyear journey thats carried us through acquisitions and expansion we now have nine U.S. locations as well as operations in Belgium Singapore Germany and China.

Throughout this global expansion Teknor has remained a privately held company and today Fains grandson sits at the helm maintaining the familys tradition of fostering deep employee and customer relationships. These relationships are what allow ustogetherto deliver customized compound solutions and help our customers create better products.

Manufacturing is a team sport and we work together to achieve our goals. Jon Fain
