Frequently asked questions
Does Pyred work everywhere in West Flanders?
Yes. From our base in Affligem we work all over Belgium, and from Dubai across the Middle East. Our own crew brings, builds, fires and clears every effect.
Who arranges the permit for fireworks?
The organiser applies to the city or municipality; our safety file provides what is needed for the effects. Read more on fireworks permits in Belgium.
Can special effects be used indoors?
Yes, with effects made for it: Sparkular cold sparks, stage pyro, CO₂, low fog and confetti. We check the venue rules and the fire detection beforehand.
