“Carapaces” is easy to use: Just clip to create. The 100-piece set features 10 different clip-on triangles. To start a first creation, we have to take 2 triangles, clip the 2 sides of the same length with a simple pressure. It is possible to follow the instructions in the booklet or follow intuition to make unique sculptures. It is possible to clip and unclip creations a lot of times very easily. The triangles can be used to make new creations. Each of the triangles has 3 sturdy hinges that also allow to animate creations such as doors or joints. The game is aimed at everyone from 14 to 99 years old. The youngest can play but must be accompanied because of the small pieces and the pointed triangles.
Carapaces is manufactured in France with injection molding machines which consume little energy compared to other manufacturing methods. The different triangles are made of easily recyclable and durable PP plastic because they are solid and infinitely reusable. It will be able to make and undo your creations for a long time without using glues which could be toxic for the environment. The boxes are packed in France by people with disabilities in special centers that provide them professional activities and medico-social and educational support.
