Computer Hardware/Memory Products
Leif rating: Likely Fair

Headquartered in United States

Kingston Technology, a global memory and storage hardware manufacturer with over 2,800 employees, has established formal sustainability policies and commitments, particularly around supply chain labor standards and climate targets. The company targets a 21% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 and net zero by 2050, aligned with Science Based Targets, and maintains RBA membership with regular supplier audits to address modern slavery and labor practice risks. However, transparency gaps exist: Kingston does not publish detailed material sourcing practices, sustainability reports lack external third-party assurance, and the company lacks major environmental certifications beyond regulatory compliance standards like RoHS and WEEE.
