Mac Studio and the Environment
Mac Studio is designed with the following features to reduce its environmental impact:5
Made with better materials
34% recycled content in the entire product,6 including:
100% recycled aluminum in the enclosure
100% recycled rare earth elements in all magnets
100% recycled gold in the plating of multiple printed circuit boards
100% recycled tin in the solder of multiple printed circuit boards
100% recycled copper and zinc in the prongs of the power cord plug and AC inlet
25% or more recycled plastic in multiple components
Energy efficient
ENERGY STAR® certified7
Smarter chemistry8
Mercury-, BFR-, PVC-, and beryllium‑free
Green manufacturing
Over 30% of manufacturing electricity sourced from supplier clean energy projects9
No established final assembly supplier sites generate any waste sent to landfill10
Responsible packaging
100% of virgin wood fiber comes from responsibly managed forests11
99% fiber-based due to our work to eliminate plastic in packaging12
Progress toward our 2030 goal
Reduced emissions for Mac Studio by 34% against our baseline13
Apple and the Environment
Today, Apple is carbon neutral for global corporate operations, and we are focused on our Apple 2030 goal to make every product carbon neutral.
Acoustic Performance
Declared noise emission values in accordance with ECMA-109
Sound Power Level L W A,m (B) | Sound Pressure Level Operator Position L p A,m (dB) | |
---|---|---|
Idle | 1.5 (K V = 0.3) | 6 |
Wireless web | 1.5 (K V = 0.3) | 6 |
L W A,m is the mean A-weighted sound power level, rounded to the nearest 0.1 B.
L p A,m is the mean A-weighted sound pressure level measured at operator position (rounded to the nearest 1 dB).
1 B (bel) = 10 dB (decibel)
K v is the statistical adder for computing upper-limit of A-weighted sound power level.
The quantity, L W A,c (formerly called L W Ad) may be computed from the sum of L W A,m and K v .
The wireless web test browses 6 tabs with a mix of content including media.
Configuration tested: Mac Studio with M2 Ultra Chip, 24-core CPU / 60-core GPU, 64GB unified memory, 1TB storage.
1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
Wi‑Fi 6E available in countries and regions where supported.
Weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process.
iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are available on the Mac App Store. Downloading apps requires an Apple ID and a device that is compatible with the OS version required for each app.
Data accurate as of product launch.
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.
ENERGY STAR and the ENERGY STAR mark are registered trademarks owned by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
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 cords in India, Thailand (for 2-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.
We estimate the percentage of electricity-related emissions in our manufacturing that is sourced from clean electricity by attributing to our carbon model clean energy procured by our suppliers in the prior fiscal year, based on the supplier manufacturing allocations at time of product launch. Included in this number is only clean electricity that Apple or its suppliers have procured as part of Apple’s Supplier Clean Energy Program.
All established final assembly supplier sites—those that have been Apple suppliers for more than one year—for Mac Studio are third-party verified as Zero Waste by UL LLC (UL 2799 Standard). UL requires at least 90 percent diversion through methods other than waste to energy to achieve Zero Waste to Landfill (Silver 90–94 percent, Gold 95–99 percent, and Platinum 100 percent) designations.
Responsible sourcing of wood fiber is defined in Apple’s Sustainable Fiber Specification. We consider wood fibers to include bamboo.
Breakdown of U.S. retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks, and coatings are excluded from our calculations of plastic content and packaging weight.
Carbon reductions are calculated against a baseline scenario: 1) No use of clean electricity for manufacturing or product use, beyond what is already available on the grid (based on regional emissions factors). 2) Apple’s carbon intensity of key materials as of 2015 (our baseline year for our 2030 product carbon neutrality goal). Carbon intensity of materials reflects use of recycled content and production technology. 3) Apple’s average mix of transportation modes (air, rail, ocean, ground) by product line across three years (fiscal years 2017 to 2019) to best capture the baseline transportation emissions of our products.
