Ik kwam het volgende tegen op de site van Epic Fireworks uit Engeland.:
WELL, THIS IS THE FUTURE OF FIREWORK CAKES / BARRAGES – AND YOU SAW IT HERE FIRST
This will be how cakes and barrages are made in the future. The mould is made 100% from recycled materials including vegetable fibre, recycled paper, starch, calcium carbonate, and glue and it’s extremely strong – which makes it even safer.
There will be no need to roll the tubes, wait till the tubes dry, insert a bung……etc……. Now, all you do is insert the lift-charge and effect chamber, add the cardboard disc, add the fuse underneath (see pic below) and wrap the label around the firework.
Job Done.
In theory, the price of firework cakes and barrages should come down as this process removes a lot of production time
(and the labour costs in China are going up and up and up every year) but the initial investment in the new machines that produce the mould is very very expensive.
So, a very well done to our Chinese suppliers for coming up with this awesome idea – the only thing they haven’t figured out (yet) is that they can’t produce fan cakes this way !
But watch this space !
More news on this fantastic development to follow soon
