Connetix bolsters line-up with Portal, Glitter, Light Up and Pro ranges

Magnetic tiles brand Connetix is expanding its line with the addition of Portal, Glitter and Light Up ranges, alongside a new collection aimed at older builders in Connetix Pro.

The 70-piece Connetix Pro set features smaller opaque tiles in six colours, aimed at enabling older creators and kidults to build with greater complexity. Elsewhere, the Connetix Light Star Pack includes pentagons, squares, and equilateral triangles in eight bright colours, plus a rechargeable light-up magnetic tile designed to transform builds into lightshows.

The Connetix Glitter range spans a Castle pack and a Unicorn pack, each with sparkling tiles, while the Connetix Portal Pack boasts three different sized squares designed to nest together and mix-and-match, offering greater complexity and detail in designs.

“It’s such an exciting time for Connetix as we see these new packs come to life,” says Brea Brand, Co-Founder and CEO of Connetix.

“We’re always so inspired by our play community and the ways they are seeking to level up builds and expand on creative possibilities. We’ve thoughtfully designed each of these packs to offer something unique, to amplify STEAM learning and bring even more educational value to families through the fun of open-ended play.”
