KE Elektronik is committed to the implementation of the goals of the REACH regulation. REACH is the abbreviation for Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of chemicals and chemical substances.

Amphenol seeks to go beyond local and customer requirements in our efforts to be a responsible corporate steward. In accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s conflict minerals requirements, we have a comprehensive conflict minerals program which ensures that we do not knowingly use tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG) that originate from sources that directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups through mining or mineral trading in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country. On an annual basis, we actively survey our supply chain regarding the origin of the 3TG used in our products to ensure the appropriate reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) and due diligence has been performed, as detailed in our latest Conflict Minerals Report. Amphenol is also a member of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) which seeks to promote the common goal of understanding and contributing to mitigating the salient social and environmental impacts of extraction and processing of raw materials in supply chains.
