Firecrackers

Firecrackers are the most popular fireworks available on the market. Their history dates back to the 6th century, when they were used in China to ward off evil spirits. Today, they are commonly associated with celebrating New Year's Eve, the arrival of the New Year, and they also have practical applications such as scaring away wild animals or signaling. Unlike traditional rockets or mortars, firecrackers do not soar into the air; instead, upon ignition, they simulate an explosion similar to a grenade — with a brief flash and a loud bang. They are mostly ignited traditionally using a fuse or by friction against a striker. Our firecracker shop also offers percussion grenades, which are firecrackers ignited by a pull string. Check out our range, where you'll find the most powerful percussion firecrackers and flash firecrackers, among other items.
