Bradenton, FL -- January 10, 2007 -- Steven Klein, President of KleinCepts Inc., a retired NYC educator has created the Connect Bottle™. Klein, the founder of the Learning Store Ltd, a small chain of educational toy stores, originally developed the patent pending system as an educational toy. He later discovered that the invention could have environmental and humanitarian benefits. The Connect Bottle™ will reduce the amount of plastic bottles in landfills, while creating fun toys for kids that could also be used to insulate homes.
The Connect Bottle™ enables its users to connect the bottles by threading them together or inserting the cap into the connector piece at the bottom of the bottle. Adding a series of lightweight plastic connectors and wheels, in an assortment of shapes will turn the empty containers into letters of the alphabet, goal posts, a soccer goal, animals, tunnels, vehicles and a variety of endless creative possibilities.
 The basic connector piece is molded into the bottom of the bottles enabling the bottles to be connected with their caps on or off. Since the basic connector is molded into the bottle base, the classic shapes of traditional, easily recognizable containers could be maintained without sacrificing any of their original characteristics. The Connect BottleTM system will work with any size or shape bottle or container.
As a building toy it shares the learning and developmental qualities of other building toys such as hardwood blocks and Lego’s. Optional connectors, wheels, lights, remote controls are currently being developed. Annual creative building contests for elementary, high school and college students (with scholarships or cash awards as incentives) are also being planned, which will create positive public relations for brands utilizing the system.
Connect Bottle™ can also be used to create insulation for homes. Since air within a sealed container provides excellent insulation, empty containers utilizing this system could be threaded together end to end to form strips of insulation. The insulation strips would be lined up side by side to create insulation for shelters in third world countries. This will create additional positive public relations for brands utilizing the system.
The Connect Bottle ™ - A Beverage Bottle that is Making Connections Everywhere!
