On the night of November 18, 2025, Apple made a groundbreaking announcement. The cases for the Apple Watch Ultra 3 and the titanium - edition Apple Watch Series 11 are created using a 3D printing process with 100% recycled aerospace - grade titanium powder. In this process, recycled titanium alloy scrap is first transformed into a fine powder. Then, through a layer - by - layer melting technique, the case takes shape. In contrast to traditional CNC machining, this 3D printing approach slashes raw material consumption by roughly half. In 2025 alone, it's estimated to save approximately 400 tons of titanium. Moreover, the USB - C port housing of the iPhone Air also utilizes this cutting - edge 3D printing technology.
