Mac Studio and the Environment
Progress toward Apple 2030
Apple 2030 is our goal to be carbon neutral across our value chain. We design our products to be less carbon intensive by prioritizing the use of recycled and renewable content and low-carbon materials while focusing on the energy efficiency of our software and hardware.
Materials
Mac Studio is made with 35% recycled content,8 including:
100% recycled aluminum in the enclosure and thermal module sheet, chassis, and brackets
100% recycled copper in the thermal module pedestal and multiple printed circuit boards
100% recycled gold plating and tin solder in all Apple‑designed printed circuit boards
90% recycled steel in multiple thermal module components
Packaging
100% fiber-based packaging9
Energy
ENERGY STAR® certified10
Smarter chemistry11
All of the materials used in Apple products, accessories, and packaging are covered by the requirements of our Regulated Substances Specification, which was one of the first in industry to restrict the use of key substances of concern. See the latest Environmental Progress Report to understand Apple’s recent efforts in phasing out these chemistries.
