Certified Autism Resources: Sensory Hive & Senso Cube Recognised for Impactful Support

We’re proud to announce that both our Sensory Hive and Senso Cube have been officially awarded the Certified Autism Resource (CAR) designation — an internationally recognised certification that validates the positive impact of these tools for individuals with autism and sensory processing differences.

This recognition comes from IBCCES (The International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards), a leading independent certification body that specialises in cognitive disorders and neurodiversity.

 What Is a Certified Autism Resource?

The CAR certification is awarded to products or services that meet one or more of IBCCES’s six areas of autism competency, which include:

• Autism Overview
• Behavior Competency
• Program Development Competency
• Early Childhood Identification Competency
• Parent Communication Competency
• Comorbidities Competency

As part of the application process, our products were reviewed by a board of experts to evaluate how they support individuals with autism — across therapeutic, educational, and developmental contexts. This review confirmed that the Sensory Hive and Senso Cube meaningfully align with these standards and provide measurable benefits.

What This Means for our Clients?

Receiving this certification means you can trust that our solutions aren’t just well-designed — they’ve been independently evaluated and proven to help:

Sensory Hive Features:

The Sensory Hive is one of our latest innovations — a mobile, modular sensory solution created to bring sensory spaces into open-plan environments, shared areas, or places where a permanent room isn’t feasible.

• Unique Hexagonal Shape – Distinctive design promotes a cosy, enclosed feel without feeling claustrophobic.

• Mobile & Flexible – A self-contained solution that can be installed in multi-use or open-plan spaces.

• Customisable Sensory Features – Choose from calming bubble tubes or LED waterless alternatives, fibre optics, starry ceilings, and interactive panels.

• 8-Way Wirefree Colour Controller – Users can easily switch between soothing colour options with no complicated setup.

• Tailored to Your Needs – Every Hive is made to order, ensuring it suits your space and user requirements perfectly.

• Wheelchair Accessible – Thoughtfully designed to be inclusive and easy to access.

• Delivered & Installed with Ease – Our team takes care of delivery and setup, so you’re ready to go from day one.

Whether you’re creating a break-out space in a busy school or a calming environment in a therapy centre, the Sensory Hive delivers high-impact sensory support with flexibility and ease.

Testimonials:

The Senso Cube provides a safe haven where pupils can regulate their sensory and emotional needs, enabling them to return to the classroom ready to learn. It also provides a learning space for pupils who learn best in this nurturing environment. It is accessible to our wheelchair users and what we are so proud of, it allows our PMLD users to make use of the space too. With the sensory space, they now have a place to retreat to when needed, where they can engage in calming activities tailored to their sensory preferences. The space can lead to reduced anxiety and encourage positive school experiences. 

Our investment in the Senso Cube has been crucial to ensuring accessible sensory and therapeutic input in the immediate area where it is needed. The future flexibility of being able to move and place the Senso Cube, means we as a school will be able to meet the needs of the learners who need it most and perhaps cannot avail of other school areas. The Senso Cube has allowed us to have equitable provision in areas of the school where it may not have been previously possible.

From the first moment we saw the Senso Cube, we knew that it could make a huge difference for the ever increasing number of children with sensory needs attending our school. Like many schools, our budget is tight. However, the investment we put into the Cube has already paid off. It has provided the school with the ability to better meet the needs of not just children with complex needs but also those who can access a mainstream classroom as long as their sensory needs are met. Children, staff and families love the space. It has been amazing to see how a relatively small space can provide so many children with what they need. The Senso Cube has even been used to support children who do not have sensory needs. Small groups of children have used it to have an immersive experience, enhancing their writing sessions. If you can purchase one, I strongly encourage you to do so - you will not regret it.
