The Rebirth of an Old Idea...

The canning process has been around for over 200 years. Along the way, canning methods have changed and evolved countless times to streamline the process and ensure food safety.

We've been a canning family for several generations. Our family cans our own produce, meat, sauces and soups for two primary reasons:
...

1) We're frugal about our grocery budget

2) We want to know what goes into the food we're feeding our family

Grandma used to can with glass lids and rubber gaskets. She was able to reuse her products year after year with little to no waste. Her process was eventually abandoned because the rubber gaskets had a tendancy to fail. Disposable, metal lids then became the standard. We think that Grandma was on to something. Not only would a reusable lid offer an affordable, long term canning option; but eliminating metals lids would save upwards of 75 million pounds of waste from our landfills each year. This concept motivated us to design 4ever recap canning lids.

4ever recap lids are made of BPA-free plastic which is an FDA and USDA approved, food-grade material. The plastic lids meet CFR guidelines. We upgraded the original rubber gasket by replacing it with an unbeatable silicon gasket. The silicon gasket will not stretch or dry out. It is not suseptable to nicks and cuts like other gaskets. The 4ever recap lid and gasket combination is a superior product that will truly allow you to use and reuse your lids endlessly. The lids and gaskets also store neatly with our smart-stack design for off-season storage.

We are so confident in the quality of our product that we're backing it with a "no questions asked" guarantee. If you are unhappy with our product for any reason, simply return it for a replacement or a refund.

Our goal is to offer the best product in the business while also providing the most affordable, eco-friendly option for home canning. We treat our customers like they are part of our family and we'd love for you to try our lids and services today!
