Description
Bring sound, colour and movement together with the Disco Tube, an interactive sensory resource that responds to noises by displaying vibrant rainbow lighting effects throughout the tube.
Designed to encourage participation and engagement, the Disco Tube reacts to claps, voices, stomps and even music, creating colourful light patterns that help users understand cause and effect in a fun and rewarding way.
Ideal for sensory rooms, SEND environments, schools and therapy settings, the Disco Tube can support sensory exploration, communication activities and interactive learning. Its responsive lighting effects make it particularly beneficial for encouraging vocalisation and engagement, making it a valuable addition to Speech and Language Therapy environments.
Unlike traditional sensory tubes, the Disco Tube requires no maintenance and no complicated setup. Simply plug it in and begin exploring the colourful visual effects.
Whether responding to a child’s voice, the beat of a favourite song or the sound of a clap, the Disco Tube creates an immersive sensory experience that promotes movement, interaction and learning.

How much BCB fluid do you need to put into the water? And how often?
BCB fluid should be added once a month. 20ml needs to be added for every metre of product length (for example a 2 metre Bubble Tube would require 40ml of BCB fluid). Further detailed instructions can be found on the back of the supplied BCB bottle.
What is the length of the wall bracket from the wall?
Maximum size of 50cm from the front of the acrylic tube to the wall.
Can you have tubes cut to any height?
Yes, we do a standard size of 1M, 1.5M, 1.75M and 2M however if you require a specific height you need to keep in mind the 16cm required for the height of the base. For example, if your space was 200cm and you wanted to fit in a Bubble Tube at the height of 170cm exact. The height of the Tube itself would be 154cm you then add on the size of the base which is 16cm to give you an overall height of 170cm.
Does the acrylic tube come away from the base?
yes, there are 4 bolts that can be removed from the corner. This is only needs to be done if the base requires a new acrylic tube due to damage, refurbishment, maintenance etc.
How heavy is the bubble tube without water?
The bubble tube weighs approximately 5kg without water.
What diameters are the bubble tubes available in?
The most common diameter is 150mm, but we also provide 200mm diameter bubble tubes. Please state the diameter you require when placing an order.
