Loren Stieg
A master craftsman turned innovator, Loren Stieg's journey to revolutionizing home food preservation began in the precision-driven world of tool and die making. After earning his Journeyman credentials in 1964 and establishing his own successful tool shop in the early 70s, Loren's entrepreneurial spirit led him to tackle an unexpected challenge: America's canning lid crisis.
Drawing on his expertise in plastics and precision manufacturing, Lauren developed what would become the Tattler lid – the first truly reusable home canning solution.
Despite various life changes and market challenges, Lauren never lost faith in his invention. His persistence paid off when the digital age finally allowed this game-changing product to reach a global audience. Today, Tattler lids stand as a testament to American ingenuity and sustainable design, offering home canners lifetime reusability after just three uses.
