Apple Watch 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
Apple Watch Series 12 with aluminum and titanium cases are made with 40% recycled content,27 including:
100% recycled aluminum in the aluminum case
100% recycled cobalt in the battery
100% recycled copper wire and recycled tungsten in the Taptic Engine
100% recycled gold plating and tin solder in all Apple‑designed printed circuit boards
95% recycled lithium in the battery
100% recycled titanium in the titanium case
Packaging
100% fiber‑based packaging28
Energy
100% of manufacturing electricity for Apple Watch Series 12 with aluminum and titanium cases is sourced from renewable electricity29
100% of expected customer energy use matched with renewable electricity for Apple Watch Series 12 with aluminum and titanium cases29,30
Waste
No established final assembly sites generate waste sent to landfill as part of Apple’s Zero Waste Program31
Smarter chemistry32
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.
