Apple's New Studio Display Boxes Designed to Fit in Your Recycling Bin

As part of its environmental efforts, Apple says its new Studio Display and Studio Display XDR boxes feature a collapsible design.

Studio Display and Studio Display XDR Boxes
Apple says the boxes can be broken down into smaller pieces that fit in most recycling bins:

Studio Display has been engineered to reduce its environmental impact. The stand is made with 100 percent recycled aluminum. The standard glass display contains 80 percent recycled glass — an Apple first. And the 100 percent fiber-based box has been extensively redesigned for collapsibility, allowing it to be broken down into smaller pieces that will fit in most household recycling bins.

Apple also says both of the new Studio Display models contain 80% recycled glass, which is described as an "Apple first." This feat applies to models with standard glass, not the upgraded anti-reflective, nano-texture glass.

The new Studio Displays are available to pre-order starting Wednesday at 6:15 a.m. Pacific Time.

If you might want to sell it after a few years you should absolutely keep it.
