iPad Pro and the Environment

iPad Pro is designed to reduce environmental impact:16

See the iPad Pro Product Environmental Report (PDF)

Progress toward Apple 2030

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

See Apple’s commitment

Materials

iPad Pro is made with 30% recycled content,17 including:

  • 100% recycled aluminum in the enclosure

  • 100% recycled cobalt and 95% recycled lithium in the battery

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

  • 100% recycled gold wire in all cameras and gold plating in all connectors

  • 100% recycled rare earth elements in all magnets

  • 80% recycled steel in the LiDAR housing

Energy

  • 55% of manufacturing electricity for iPad Pro is sourced from renewable electricity18

  • ENERGY STAR® certified19

Packaging

  • 100% fiber-based packaging20

Waste

  • No established final assembly sites generate waste sent to landfill as part of Apple’s Zero Waste Program21

Smarter chemistry22

  • 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. Actual formatted capacity is less and varies due to many factors. Storage capacity subject to change based on software version, settings, and iPad model. 1GB = 1 billion bytes; 1TB = 1 trillion bytes.

  2. Size and weight vary by configuration and manufacturing process.

  3. The displays have rounded corners. When measured diagonally as a rectangle, the 13‑inch iPad Pro is 13 inches, and the 11‑inch iPad Pro is 11.1 inches. Actual viewable area is less.

  4. Apple Intelligence is available in beta. Some features may not be available in all regions or languages. For feature and language availability and system requirements, see support.apple.com/121115.

  5. FaceTime calling requires a FaceTime-enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi‑Fi connection. Availability over a cellular network depends on carrier policies; data charges may apply.

  6. Wi‑Fi 7 available in countries and regions where supported.

  7. Data plan required. 5G, Gigabit LTE, and Wi-Fi calling are available in select markets and through select carriers. Speeds are based on theoretical throughput and vary based on site conditions and carrier. For details on 5G and LTE support, contact your carrier and see apple.com/ipad/cellular.

  8. Cellular data plan is sold separately. The model you purchase is configured to work with a particular cellular network technology. Check with your carrier for compatibility and cellular data plan availability.

  9. Not all carriers support eSIM. See your carrier for more details. For Models A3359 and A3362, contact China Unicom for more details.

  10. Siri may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary by area. Internet access required. Cellular data charges may apply.

  11. Standard dynamic range video content only.

  12. Testing conducted by Apple in August and September 2025 using preproduction iPad Pro 11-inch (M5) and iPad Pro 13-inch (M5) units. Testing consisted of full battery discharge while performing each of the following tasks: video playback and internet browsing using Wi‑Fi or cellular data network (cellular models subscribed to LTE and 5G carrier networks). Video content was a repeated 2-hour 23-minute movie purchased from the iTunes Store. Internet over Wi‑Fi and cellular data network tested by browsing 20 popular web pages. All settings were default except: Wi‑Fi was associated with a network (except for internet browsing over cellular data network); the Wi‑Fi feature Ask to Join Networks and Auto-Brightness were turned off; Brightness was set to 50%; and WPA2 encryption was enabled. Battery life depends on device settings, usage, network, and many other factors. Battery tests are conducted using specific iPad units; actual results may vary.

  13. Testing conducted by Apple in August and September 2025 using preproduction iPad Pro 11-inch (M5) and iPad Pro 13-inch (M5) units, and USB‑C Charge Cable with Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max (Model A3351) or Apple 70W USB-C Power Adapter (Model A2305). Fast-charge testing conducted with drained iPad Pro units. Times measured from the appearance of the Apple logo as the unit started up. Charge time varies with settings and environmental factors; actual results will vary.

  14. Apple Invites, Apple Support, and Swift Playgrounds are available on the App Store for iPad. Downloading apps requires an Apple Account and a device that is compatible with the OS version required for each app.

  15. Wireless broadband recommended; fees may apply.

  16. Data accurate as of product launch.

  17. Product recycled or renewable content is the mass of certified recycled material relative to the overall mass of the device, not including packaging or in‑box accessories.

  18. We estimate the percentage of electricity‑related emissions in our manufacturing that is sourced from low-carbon electricity by attributing to our carbon model low-carbon energy procured by our suppliers in the prior fiscal year, based on the supplier manufacturing allocations at time of product launch. This calculation assesses the suppliers for iPad Pro. Included in this number is only low-carbon electricity that Apple or its suppliers have procured as part of Apple’s Supplier Clean Energy Program.

  19. ENERGY STAR and the ENERGY STAR mark are registered trademarks owned by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

  20. Based on retail packaging as shipped by Apple. Breakdown of U.S. retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks, and coatings are excluded from our calculations of plastic content and packaging weight.

  21. All established final assembly supplier sites — those that have been Apple suppliers for more than one year — for iPad Pro 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.

  22. Apple 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 cords in India, Thailand (for two-prong AC power cords), 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.

Some features may not be available for all countries or all areas. View complete list.
