FAQs
Product Information
Is your product child safety certified?
Yes, Superspace has passed the official children's safety standards for the UK and USA (UKCA and CE).
Due to the magnets, we take child safety very seriously. Our patented secure magnet casing system means that even if the casing is removed from the panel the magnet will be very hard to remove.
However, the magnets would be dangerous if swallowed.
We encourage parents to check their Superspace often for loose or broken parts and take away panels with broken parts from children.
What are the Superspace panels made from?
Superspace panels are made using a really neat material we call Eco Felt, which is produced from recycled plastic bottles!
In fact, there is the equivalent of 130 x 330ml bottles in every 22 panel Big Set.
This makes the panels hard wearing, durable and easy to wipe clean (we recommend simply using a damp cloth).
What ages is Superspace suitable for?
We designed Superspace to appeal to a wide range of ages from 3 years right through to 10 years and above (even adults!).
Because of the endless range of creative builds and structures possible from forts/playhouses, spaceships and boats through to shops/cafes and stages for plays and puppet shows there are really no age limits!
How many of each panel shape do I get in a 24 panel set?
The Big Set (24 panels) includes:
- 10 x squares
- 2 x square windows
- 6 x triangles
- 4 x trapezoids
- 1 x rectangle
- 1 x rectangle window/door
What colours does Superspace come in?
We are currently offering 5 colours: orange, turquoise, blue, charcoal and pine green. If you click into the product information you can see images of the different colours.
What are the dimensions and weight of the 24 set packing box?
1000mm (40") x 500mm (20") x 192mm (9").
It weighs 12.5kg (27lbs).
What are the sizes of each of the panels?
The thickest part of each panel is around 1/2" (1.2mm). Each side of the squares, squares with windows and triangles are 20" (50cm). The long sides of the Rectangles and the Trapezoid is 40" (100cm) and short side is 20" (50cm).
What is the difference between a 24 Panel Set and a 22 Panel Set?
In September 2024 we updated the configuration of our Big Set to include four more Squares at the expense of two Trapezoids and swapped a Rectangle for a Rectangle Window/Door. This new configuration also lifted the price to $399.

Product Safety
Are the magnets dangerous?
Neodymium magnets (or “Rare Earth”) have an inherent risk associated with them. However these magnets have been evaluated and passed by our stringent safety and quality control tests. There is no risk of a magnet being exposed to a persons skin.
Those with electronic medical implants and pacemakers are advised to keep their distance from strong magnets. Magnets can also affect diabetic pumps if in close contact.
Will the magnet effect my TV, phone or laptop?
We have tested TVs, phones and laptops and they are fine with these magnets. It’s best to keep your credit card from touching magnets however as they can wipe them (but only if really close).
