Professional fireworks are not just any old fireworks. They are much higher powered and able to produce greater force than your average firework.

What kind of fireworks do professionals use? If you have ever wondered this, I am here to shed some light on the subject. Here's a look at the fireworks used by professionals in Manchester fireworks pyrotechnics.

Roman Candles

Roman candles are fireworks that consist of several tubes fused together. Shortly before the show begins, a long fuse is inserted into the centre tube, which ignites when lit. The fireworks have two different modes — one in which all the tubes shoot out a bunch of sparks at once and another in which the tubes shoot out sparks at regular intervals.

Rockets

The most popular type of fireworks without a doubt are rockets. They tend to be the most popular for one reason: FUN!

They are designed for special effects: red sparkles, silver sparkles, loud bangs. They move horizontally across the sky or defy gravity by moving straight up into the air. Some of them turn corners as they fly. Some look like raindrops long after they’ve left us.

Because these fireworks launch into the air, they often create more action than other fireworks. These fireworks can be made to burst in a variety of different colours and designs and are all very impressive to the crowd.

Single Shot Tubes

These fireworks have a simple cone shape to them, but this shape packs a powerful punch. It’s no wonder why single-shot tubes make up the majority of the fireworks professionals use. Single-shot tube fireworks are so popular that in 2013 over 20 million dollars worth of consumer sales came from these kinds of fireworks alone!

Fountain Fireworks

Fountain fireworks is a fireworks display with a compilation of radiant colours and lights. These brightly lighted fireworks are terrific to watch. Fountain fireworks have their exceptional charm when they are fired off against the night sky and create a marvellous canvas.

Fountain fireworks are different from the other types because they do not explode or break, instead, they shoot forth a burst of colour. This way, they can be used for top-shelf entertainment.

Aerial Star Shells

Aerial star shells create their magic by unleashing bright stars that explode in mid-air. Fireworks professionals use aerial star shells in their shows because they are all about big, bright and loud.

Star shells can be fired into the sky or onto the ground to dazzle and amaze spectators from afar as well as those up close, creating colours of bright blue, red, and green. They are ignited inside a mortar by a long stick with a fuse at one end.

These large shells can put on a spectacular show. Star shells are made by filling a shell with stars and then adding a burst charge to ignite the stars.

Bottom Line

Hope this gave you a good insight into professional fireworks. So, what are you waiting for? Go buy one for your next show.
