“If it were that important to avoid metal shavings, the manufacturer or airline would provide you with the tools.” That’s what some sceptics say about TheCanKey, particularly our FOD-free can opener. But let’s set the record straight.
In fact, industry giants like Shell, Exxon Mobil, NYCO Group, Anderol Inc., and Eastman don’t just recommend TheCanKey—they use it! These world-leading oil manufacturers trust our products to ensure the safety and integrity of their operations. They understand the risks of using improper tools, such as screwdrivers or Leatherman pliers, to open oil cans. You can find more about the potential dangers of metal shavings on engine safety here.
But it’s not just oil manufacturers who are on board. 14 aircraft manufacturers, 17 air forces, 3 police forces, 49 airline operators, 38 helicopter operators, 68 business aircraft operators, 96 parts and oil distributors, 94 maintenance firms and 11 air ambulances across 54 countries and 400 plus clients are already taking action to prevent Foreign Object Debris (FOD) damage to their engines. And we’re proud to be part of that solution.
Torben Biehl Jensen, the founder of TheCanKey, shared his vision in our guide: “We’ve built our products to not only prevent FOD but to ensure safety and extend the lifespan of critical machinery. Seeing how global leaders in the oil and aviation industries trust TheCanKey reaffirms our commitment to quality.”

We know that shifting old habits can be tough—“Old habits die hard,” they say. But trust us, breaking the habit of using the wrong tools is more than worth the effort. If the impressive list of industry leaders isn’t enough to convince you, we invite you to visit our store and try our products for yourself.
