Stacking Counters (Product Code: SLE/MAT/78) is a set of plastic counters used for sorting, counting, comparing numbers and early arithmetic in pre-primary and primary maths lessons. Teachers choose them because the counters come in 5 colours and stack into towers, making number size, grouping and multiplication visible; each counter is 2 cm in diameter. They are made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Because they stack, these counters turn numbers into towers children can see and compare. A tower of seven stands visibly taller than a tower of four, so comparing and ordering numbers becomes a matter of looking, and the gap between two towers is a subtraction problem made physical. Sorting by the five colours gives young learners an easy first classification task before counting begins.
For grouping and multiplication, pupils build several towers of equal height and count the total, seeing multiplication as repeated addition. Colour patterns within a stack introduce number patterns and sequences, and the compact 2 cm size keeps a full class set manageable on small desks — a practical choice for mathematics lab kits in the early years.
Stacking Counters come from ScienceLab — Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited — as the OEM (original equipment manufacturer). They are made at the company’s own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to schools, play schools, NGOs, distributors and importers. Because the maker supplies them itself, extra counters for classroom sets and repeat orders can simply be requested from us. Company background is on the ScienceLab profile page.
Counting and number-sense lessons often combine the counters with:
All counting and number aids are grouped under Maths Lab Equipment.
What size and colours are the Stacking Counters?
Stacking Counters (SLE/MAT/78) are plastic counters 2 cm in diameter, supplied in 5 colours. The colours support sorting and pattern work, while the stacking design lets children build towers to compare, group and order numbers.
How many Stacking Counters come in a pack?
The product description of Stacking Counters does not state how many counters come in a pack or how many there are of each colour. Tell us how many you need per class through the contact page and we will confirm the pack contents in our quotation.
How do Stacking Counters help teach multiplication?
With Stacking Counters, pupils build equal towers — for example three towers of four — and count the total, seeing multiplication as repeated addition. Rearranging the same counters into different equal groups also introduces factors and early division.
Which age group are Stacking Counters suitable for?
Stacking Counters suit pre-primary and primary children learning to sort, count, compare and order numbers, and later to add, subtract and multiply. Because the counters are small, young children should use them under adult supervision.
