Build Like a PRO: CONNETIX Launches Advanced Magnetic Tiles to Challenge the Next Generation of Builders

PERTH, AUSTRALIA – July 10, 2025 – CONNETIX is levelling up magnetic tile construction with the launch of the CONNETIX PRO line – an advanced construction experience designed for critical thinkers, future engineers and ambitious creators.



Introducing smaller tiles with CONNETIX Smart-Spin™ technology – an innovation that enables ultra powerful magnets to rotate 360° within the tile and ‘click’ into place, unlocking creative freedom to construct in exciting new directions and go beyond imagination. Offering an elevated experience from standard tiles, the PROs are not limited to set magnet positions, allowing older builders to overlap, offset and stagger tiles to create intricate, multi-dimensional designs.



From engineering aerodynamic vehicles and robotic systems to designing detailed interiors, characters and creatures – the PRO line inspires sophisticated, functional builds that can be moved, picked up and shared.



“With the launch of CONNETIX PRO, we’re breaking the mould of what magnetic tiles can be and who they’re for,” says Brea Brand, Co-Founder and CEO of CONNETIX. “Play doesn’t have to stop after a certain age. Older children still crave opportunities to be creative and challenged through play. CONNETIX PRO aims to deliver just that; a sophisticated, open-ended building experience that speaks to their natural curiosity. We believe we’ve created something special with this line that keeps the joy of play alive through the tween years and beyond.”



Launching with the 70-Piece PRO Constructor Set – featuring smaller, refined, opaque tiles in six contemporary colours – the PROs offer limitless opportunity for older creators and kidults to build with greater complexity.



Available globally through specialty retailers and at connetixtiles.com the CONNETIX PRO Line is here to inspire the next generation of builders to level up their creations, engineer like never before, and build like a PRO.
