Safe Storage

How should I store my pyrotechnics?

There is little guidance on the perfect storage for small amounts of consumer pyrotechnics, but the following simple tips should help (some excerpts taken from the Explosives Act (NI) 1924):

1. Keep the items sealed in their original cardboard packaging, and stored away from other potential flammable materials
2. Choose a store which is dry and free from damp, and safe from any sources of ignition or explosion
3. Ensure that you have taken reasonable steps to ensure the security of your pyrotechnics, ie: lock them in an isolated cupboard as opposed to leaving under your bed.
Never leave them were thoese inexperienced or children can get their hands on them.
Remember that although they are a low grade type of Explosive
THEY CAN INJURE IF NOT USED CORRECTLY
