Where advanced home safety systems meet DIY creativity, making STEM learning worry-free for every family.

SINGAPORE and HONG KONG, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Global digital creativity brand ugee today announced the official market availability of Funbox, its first desktop 3D printer designed specifically for children and beginners. Now shipping to customers in Singapore and Hong Kong, Funbox combines home-grade safety, one-tap operation, and AI-powered creative tools to turn abstract ideas into tangible 3D creations—making STEAM learning truly accessible, worry-free, and fun for families.

As demand for personal 3D printing and educational tech gadgets surges across Asia-Pacific, Funbox arrives as a timely solution for parents seeking high-quality, child-safe STEAM resources, and for gift buyers looking for innovative tech presents for children aged 6 to 12.

“As 3D printing evolves, there is robust market demand for safe, easy-to-use printers tailored for kids and beginners. Backed by UL certification, our printers provide comprehensive eco-friendly safety protection to put parents’ minds at ease. We aim to make 3D printing accessible to all, not just tech experts. We iterated products around safety, ease and fun: full one-tap operation from unboxing, streamlined workflows and kid-focused interfaces. AI fuels easy creation, making home toy printing simple and delightful. Most importantly, children build creative thinking and problem-solving skills through play, fully aligned with STEAM education,” said Amy Yuan, Global Brand Director of ugee.

Safety: Home-Grade Full-Spectrum Safety Protection Delivers Reliable In-home Usage

Marking an industry benchmark for home safety, Funbox features fully enclosed rounded-edge chassis paired with 12V low-voltage DC power supply complying with strict IEC safety norms to avoid electric shock risks. Equipped with exclusive H12 HEPA filter + activated carbon cotton dual air purification module, along with a 6010 large-sized active exhaust fan — the largest in its class.  It has earned UL GREENGUARD, ASTM F963-23, EN71 & EN62115 international toy safety standards, and the device efficiently traps ultrafine particles and unpleasant odors generated during printing. Different from open-structured rivals like Bambu Lab A1 Mini with exposed high-temperature nozzles and unfiltered exhaust, Funbox supports stable overnight printing inside closed carpeted rooms, eliminating parents’ core worries over indoor air pollution and accidental scalding. Real-time heating indicator alerts also remind users of hot nozzle status whenever replacing filaments or calibrating components for extra protection.

Ease of Use: Zero-Threshold Overall Design Lets Kids Operate Independently

In terms of usability, Funbox comes fully 100% pre-assembled right out of packaging with zero requirement for bed leveling, screw installation or complicated mechanical debugging. Adopting Wi-Fi 6 dual-band wireless connection and proprietary UFun mobile application, it delivers a peak print speed of 500mm/s and ultra-fine 0.05mm minimum layer precision. Three-tier hierarchical slicing modes covering Fast, Standard, and Fine satisfy diverse needs from preschool beginners to teen hobbyists. Built-in 2MP HD camera enables real-time remote monitoring and creative time-lapse shooting, while practical built-in functions including power-loss resume printing and filament jam auto-detection effectively reduce print failure rates and lower daily maintenance burden for both kids and guardians.

Fun & Creation: AI Powers Diversified Creation for Edutainment STEM Experience

Highlighting immersive creative fun and STEM education value, Funbox’s proprietary AI ShapeGen algorithm realizes three intelligent generation modes: voice description, text input and hand-doodle conversion, instantly turning kids’ casual sketches and random ideas into printable 3D models. The UFun App hosts a continuously updated rich resource library filled with toys, stationery, animal crafts and mechanical models, paired with serialized free online STEM tutorial courses that guide children to learn structural design and engineering logic during hands-on making. Unlike Toybox’s closed ecosystem locking users into overpriced proprietary filaments, Funbox fully supports all mainstream universal 1.75mm PLA materials to cut long-term household operating costs and maximize creative freedom.

Pricing & Availability

Funbox is now available for purchase through ugee’s official website, with shipping to Singapore and Hong Kong.

CFD Broker Mitrade EU Introduces Excess-of-Loss Insurance Protection for Its Clients

Published

on

By

LIMASSOL, Cyprus, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CFD broker Mitrade has arranged additional insolvency insurance for eligible clients onboarded under its CySEC licence. The initiative reflects a broader focus on strengthening client confidence and investor protection.

This excess-of-loss policy supplements protections CySEC already mandates. CySEC-authorised investment firms are required to segregate client funds and contribute to the Investor Compensation Fund. Beyond those statutory safeguards, Mitrade EU Limited’s discretionary insurance coverage has been arranged through Lloyd’s of London and funded by Mitrade. It is automatically available to eligible clients without an opt-in requirement or additional client charge.

Should Mitrade EU Limited become insolvent, the policy may cover eligible claims, subject to its terms, conditions and exclusions, up to a maximum aggregate amount of €1 million across all claims combined. It does not cover trading losses or losses caused by market movements.

“Regulation sets the baseline; we decide how much further to go for clients,” said Timur Konsky, CEO of Mitrade EU. “That is why we put additional insurance in place with Lloyd’s of London. Our approach is to identify where clients can be protected and take steps to reduce those risks. Transparency and safety should not be marketing language; they should be demonstrated through the safeguards a broker chooses to put in place. We want our clients to judge us by our actions, and this policy is another concrete example of that commitment.”

Mitrade EU’s excess-of-loss insurance cover takes effect from 1 September 2026.
