1.0 Environmental policy & environmental management

2

 

An environmental policy and environmental management system (EMS) demonstrates the commitment, purpose,

 

 

objective and mission of a company. Apple has established an internal EMS, and has certified its facilities in

 

 

Sacramento, CA, Ireland, and Singapore to ISO 14001.

 

2.0

Environmentally conscious design

2

 

Environmentally conscious design is the systematic approach of identifying and incorporating product features

 

 

and functions with respect to environmental, health and safety objectives throughout all stages of a product’s life.

 

 

Apple has established a process where we address these issues in the design, development, manufacture, use,

 

 

and end-of-life of our products.

 

3.0

Banned/restricted materials

3

 

Some materials that have traditionally been used in electronic products have been determined to be

 

 

environmental or health hazards. The use of these materials has been banned or restricted by legislation or

 

 

ecolabels.

 

4.0

Batteries

4

 

Apple uses rechargeable batteries to provide power for notebooks, develops power management software and

 

 

energy saving features to obtain maximum efficiency, and avoids batteries that contain lead, cadmium and/or

 

 

mercury.

 

5.0

Energy consumption

4

 

The use of energy-efficient products results in savings in energy costs and the reduction of pollution resulting

 

 

from the generation of electricity. Apple promotes energy conservation in its product design and performance

 

 

including our participation in the ENERGY STAR® program and no-load power consumption programs such as

 

 

the EU Code of Conduct for external power supplies, and the U.S. Federal Energy Management Program. The

 

 

energy data listed reflects standard configurations only. Other configurations may yield different energy values.

 

6.0

Emissions

4

 

Apple products are tested and certified to international standards to assure the safe use of our products.

 

7.0 Electrical Safety, EMC, and connection to telephone network

5

 

The safe use of Apple products is of foremost concern. Therefore, Apple tests and certifies our products to

 

 

international standards to assure their safe use.

 

8.0

Ergonomics

5

 

Visual ergonomics is an important concern to computer users. It affects user comfort and performance. Apple

 

 

designs, tests and certifies our displays to meet stringent visual ergonomics (front of screen) criteria. In addition,

 

 

our displays have the capability of tilting and swiveling to adjust to user needs.

 

9.0

Packaging and documentation

5

 

Apple evaluates the environmental attributes of our packaging for hazardous materials as well as the

 

 

minimization of the quantity and weight of the packaging materials. These considerations enable and promote

 

 

recycling of packaging materials for our customers.

 

10.0 Recycling

5

 

Apple designs its products with specific features and functions that promote the ease of recyclables. In addition,

 

 

in specific countries, Apple has established takeback/recycling programs to assist customers.
