Who we are

A memory partner built for the long term.

Centon Electronics makes memory and storage for markets that rely on data integrity: industrial automation, transportation, defense, enterprise computing and consumer electronics.

We keep broadening our portfolio as technology and customer needs change. Whether the application is aerospace, robotics, surveillance, gaming or the latest consumer device, we provide specific answers to unique needs, not catalog responses to standard requests.

Every build follows a documented process that outside auditors check against ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015. Quality is not a department at Centon. It is how we operate.
