|
|
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. |

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. |
