Mac Pro and the Environment
Mac Pro is designed with the following features to reduce its environmental impact.7
Made with better materials
30 per cent recycled content in the entire product8, including:
70 per cent recycled aluminium in the enclosure
100 per cent recycled rare earth elements in the speaker magnets
100 per cent recycled gold in the plating of multiple printed circuit boards
100 per cent recycled tin in the solder of multiple printed circuit boards
35 per cent or more recycled plastic in multiple components
Energy-efficient
ENERGY STAR®–certified9
Smarter chemistry10
Mercury-, BFR-, PVC- and beryllium-free
Green manufacturing
Over 20 per cent of manufacturing electricity sourced from supplier clean energy projects11
No established final assembly supplier sites generate any waste sent to landfill12
Responsible packaging
100 per cent of virgin wood fibre comes from responsibly managed forests13
95 per cent fibre-based packaging14
Progress toward our 2030 goal
Reduced emissions for Mac Pro by 34 per cent against our baseline15
Apple and the Environment
We’re committed to making our products without taking from the earth, and to becoming carbon-neutral across our entire business, including our products, by 2030.
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 | 2.6 (K V = 0.3) | 11 |
Wireless web | 2.6 (K V = 0.3) | 11 |
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 the 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 Pro with M2 Ultra Chip, 24-core CPU / 60-core GPU, 64GB unified memory, 1TB storage, tower enclosure.
1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
Wi‑Fi 6E connectivity available in countries where supported.
Weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process.
Acoustics measured from typical operator position sitting in front of standard Mac Pro system. Acoustics may vary by configuration.
Apple Intelligence will be available in beta on all iPhone 16 models, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, and iPad and Mac with M1 and later, with Siri and device language set to US English, as part of an iOS 18, iPadOS 18 and macOS Sequoia update this October. Australian English support available December 2024. Some features and additional languages will be coming over the course of the next year.
iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers and Keynote are available on the Mac App Store. Downloading apps requires an Apple Account 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.

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 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.
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 Pro are third-party verified as Zero Waste by UL LLC (UL 2799 Standard). UL requires at least 90 per cent diversion through methods other than waste to energy to achieve Zero Waste to Landfill (Silver 90–94 per cent, Gold 95–99 per cent and Platinum 100 per cent) designations.
Responsible sourcing of wood fibre is defined in Apple’s Sustainable Fiber Specification. We consider wood fibres to include bamboo.
Breakdown of US 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.
