Join to apply for the Manager, Human Resources role at Teknor Apex Company

When Alfred Fain founded a small Rhode Island tire store in 1924, no one could have predicted how Teknor Apex would become an international custom compounder sought out by companies around the world. After nearly a hundred-year journey 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. Today, Fain’s grandson leads, maintaining the family’s tradition of fostering deep employee and customer relationships. These relationships enable us—together—to 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
