Welcome to SpaceKraft
Spacekraft develop and manufacture a full range of sensory products that provide genuine solutions to meet the changing needs of our customers.
Drawing on the expertise of professionals working in the field, SpaceKraft has created an unrivalled range of sensory products that come with a built-in seal of approval from people like yourself, who have real experience of the demands made on sensory products in a Multi-Sensory Environment.
-
SpaceKraft have designed and installed over 5000 Multi Sensory Environments during their 26 years. The Multi-Sensory Room uses light, sound and a range of specialised equipment designed to create an environment that is used for relaxation and calming. With the aid of switches it allows users to interact with the equipment giving the opportunity to explore cause and effect. The Multi-Sensory Room delivers proven benefits across all age ranges and from moderate to profound special needs. With inclusion high on the agenda, mainstream schools are also now recognizing the value of such a resource.
Whether it's a dark room, white room or softplay room you require we can meet your needs. From hydrotherapy pools to sensory themed studio's SpaceKraft can fulfil your requirements.
Customers welcome the combination of expertise, attention to detail and long-term support which SpaceKraft provide. For us, a project represents the beginning of a long term relationship, providing you with the support and advice on products that are appropriate in terms of safety, accessibility and level of stimulation / challenge.

We have put together a section of products which aid development and learning and then divided them into sections so that you can locate the areas that are most appropriate. Whether you are looking for something to aid motor skills development, need a visual tool to improve tracking skills or require resources to stimulate the senses - from tactile to olfactory.
We have also packed some of our most popular resources into specific theme bags and tubs making them handy for moving between classrooms, for Occupational Therapists to carry or for use in the home.

A softplay Room is a perfect place for special needs users to push their physical boundaries, to explore and learn in a safe environment - a world of brightly coloured tunnels, dens and slides.
SpaceKraft's Interactive Softplay provides an exciting and ever changing world of steps, slides, walls, floors and challenging obstacles to be explored which reward with auditory feedback.
Environments are individually designed to your needs and coupled with the addition of specialist interactive products and control systems, you can encourage mobility and expression within an ever-changing stimulating Softplay area.
Many years of experience allow us to design an appropriate level of challenge into each Softplay room for the intended user.

Sensory integration is the 'neurological process that organizes sensation from one's own body and from the environment'. It enables us to combine sensory input with previously learnt information, memories and knowledge, and make a meaningful response. SpaceKraft is committed to working with therapists and is developing our product range in conjunction with leading manufactures to provide a one stop shop for all your therapy treatment needs. Purchase of suspended equipment should be under the advice of trained Sensory integration therapist. Please see the Sensory integration section for details of the products we offer.

Getting a whole class or a group of children to sit down and concentrate can feel like the biggest hurdle in the school day. This range of resources will assist you in this task. We offer a wide range of seating resources from beanbags too leaf chairs, encouraging the individual to be comfortable and support good postural position. Choose a colour from our range of hardwearing vinyl for all our handmade Softplay seating.
TOP TIP - It's easy to give children deep calming pressure by wrapping them into pillows or beanbags and giving long, firm pushes and squeezes. Perhaps make them into a sandwich in between two beanbags! It provides great sensory feedback for body awareness. Many children will find this very calming and ask for more.
-
Basic life skills are often learned automatically, without conscious thought. Children who have Autism tend not to be able to pick up life skills in this automatic way and need to have instructions and support to learn about their world and how they need to be.
This range of products is aimed to spark your imagination to consider different ways to teach life skills - from learning to set the table or do fastenings, to considering what people really mean when they say funny phrases such as, "pull your socks up". Have fun with these motivating tools for learning.
-
Calming and relaxation are two very important parts in any multi-sensory environment setting. At SpaceKraft we aim to provide a complete range of resources which promote calming effect in different ways. Weighted products of course are the most popular in the category, not only they are very effective but also they are extremely portable.

The natural world is a wonderful learning environment for children.
Many love natural history and learning about the world around them. The sensory opportunities are great! Digging and planting, carrying water and pushing wheelbarrows all provide great calming proprioception as well as offering a motivating learning experience. Look for quick grow items such as cress or lettuce. Try planting vegetables or easy grow flowers, and support the children in tending to the plants. The gardening tools and striped gardening gloves help cue the child in to the task, knowing what is going to be expected of them.
-
Here at SpaceKraft we have been leaders in providing sensory solutions for interactive multi-sensory environments for well over 20 years and we are constantly reminded of the overwhelming benefits for users, regardless of age. We never cease to be amazed by the outcomes achieved by individuals.
