4M CREATIVE EDUCATIONAL TOYS

Stimulating STEAM Learning with Fun 

As a local educational toy design and manufacturing company, 4M not only promotes the STEM educational philosophy prevalent in many countries, but for decades we have also been advocating the integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Creativity, and Maths (STEAM).

Recommended by Renowned Universities in the United Kingdom  

In 2006, Middlesex University in the United Kingdom collaborated with 4M to develop a series of engineering toys that were received by overseas parents and educators.

In addition, since 2015, the University of Cambridge has endorsed a series of scientific products for its “Science Festival” collection.

Recognition by Renowned Educational Organisations

Since 2004, 4M educational toys have been recognised and endorsed by the Science Museum and by the Natural History Museum in London.

   

Contribution to Nurturing Local Designers and Environmental Education

Our ongoing partnership with the Hong Kong Polytechnic University helps nourish local talent through internship and educational sponsorship programmes.  

Recently, 4M have also collaborated with the Hong Kong Polytechnic University to develop an Eco STEAM workshop that aims to educate local primary students about environmental protection, and its relationship to STEAM education. 

Industry Accolades

2012 Hong Kong Awards for Industries: Innovation and Creativity

The HKGCC Judging Panel provided these valuable comments on 4M: 

“4M is a showcase of SMEs on brand building, demonstrating the ability to distinguish itself as a brand builder from other OEM toy manufacturers. Although the play-and-learn concept is not unique, the Company is able to identify its market segment, dedicate the full efforts to establish its own brand name and product lines, and stay ahead of its competitors. Its success is driven by a passionate corporate culture towards continual innovation, proven by an introduction of numerous new products on an annual basis. 4M is also lauded for incorporating social values, such as social care and environmental protection, into its educational toys.”
