Matter Spring Special:
First box FREE when you prepay for 3-months or longer

Every month of Matter is unique, but a typical box includes 2-6 items covering a range of scientific areas. Every item also includes a research card.

Most subscribers will never get a repeat item. Each Matter box is unique, packed with scientific stuff you haven't seen before.

Occasionally we revisit a particularly amazing item, but we'll only repeat an item if it's been at least 3 years.

Most months contain 5 unique items, and have historically ranged from 2–8 items.

Some items are simply more valuable than others, so rather than promising a specific number of items, we curate each box with a total value of $50-$75 so that you get your money's worth every time.

Yes, we do! We're all about spreading the love for science, and we understand that schools and teachers (and students) have tight budgets. That's why we offer special educational discounts to help bring our Matter boxes into your classrooms or learning programs.

These boxes are perfect for sparking students' curiosity and complementing your science curriculum.

Apply for educational discounts here, or send us a purchase order from your school. Let's make science exciting and accessible for your learners!

If your lab or company produces a scientific item, or if our organizations' missions align, we would love to explore collaboration. Whether you're a burgeoning start-up or an established industry leader, we're open to a range of partnerships that drive science forward.

Past collaborations have included sponsorships, sourcing custom items, and even curating themed boxes.

Absolutely! Matter boxes are a fantastic way to spark curiosity and add a bit of science fun to your workplace. Whether it's for a team-building activity, a unique reward, or just to give your office a cool science vibe, we've got you covered.

We'll make sure they're packed with intriguing items that'll get everyone talking. Plus, it's a great way to mix up the usual office routine with some brain-tingling science.

Just let us know how many you need, and we'll handle the rest!

We currently ship globally via USPS or UPS

Due to the complex prep and assembly process for each unique item, each month's batch ships together, typically around mid-month.

See the banner above to find out if this month's batch has shipped. If it has already shipped and you'd like your first box asap, consider adding a discounted past box to ship immediately while you wait for our next batch.

You'll receive a tracking number via email as soon as each box ships.

Absolutely! Honoring our educators is so important to us.
