Studio Display XDR and the Environment

Studio Display XDR is designed to reduce environmental impact:4

Progress towards Apple 2030

  • Apple 2030 is our commitment to be carbon neutral for our entire carbon footprint. Our plan to decarbonise products is rigorous and focuses on transitioning to low‑carbon electricity, designing with recycled and low‑carbon materials and prioritising lower‑carbon ways of shipping products, like sea freight.

See Apple’s commitment

Materials

  • 100% recycled aluminium in the stand

  • 100% recycled copper in multiple printed circuit boards

  • 100% recycled copper and zinc in the AC inlet pins

  • 80% recycled glass in the standard glass

  • 100% recycled gold plating and tin solder in all Apple-designed printed circuit boards

  • 100% recycled rare earth elements in all magnets

Energy

  • ENERGY STAR® certified5

Packaging

  • 100% fibre-based packaging6

Waste

  • No established final assembly sites generate waste sent to landfill as part of Apple’s Zero Waste Programme7

Smarter chemistry8

  • 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.

  1. In temperatures less than 25° C.

  2. Weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process.

  3. Studio Display XDR camera features and firmware updates require connection to a Mac. When connected to iPad Pro 12.9‑inch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad Pro 11‑inch (1st and 2nd generation) or iPad Air (5th generation), Studio Display XDR USB‑C ports deliver USB 2 data transfer speeds.

  4. Data accurate as of product launch.

  5. ENERGY STAR and the ENERGY STAR mark are registered trademarks owned by the US Environmental Protection Agency.

  6. Breakdown of US retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks and coatings are excluded from our calculations.

  7. All established final assembly supplier sites — those that have been Apple suppliers for more than one year — for Studio Display XDR are third-party verified as Zero Waste by UL LLC (UL 2799 Standard). UL requires at least 90% diversion through methods other than waste to energy to achieve Zero Waste to Landfill (Silver 90–94%, Gold 95–99% and Platinum 100%) designations.

  8. Apple’s Regulated Substances Specification describes Apple’s restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances in materials in Apple products, accessories, manufacturing processes, and packaging used for shipping products to Apple’s end customers. Restrictions are derived from international laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco‑label requirements, environmental standards and Apple policies. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates except for AC power leads in India, Thailand (for two-pin AC power leads) and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement. Apple products comply with the European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its amendments, including exemptions for the use of lead such as high‑temperature solder. Apple is working to phase out the use of these exempted substances for new products where technically possible.
