PRODUCT

What's the difference between handheld and electric cannons?

Handheld Cannons: Twist-to-fire convenience for instant celebration dominance. Pre-loaded, no equipment needed, perfect for weddings, birthdays, and moments that demand immediate WOW.

Electric Cannons: Professional-grade power for venues that don't mess around. Requires Power Shot devices or compatible launch systems. Stadium-scale impact for serious celebrations.

✅ Product Assurance
  • Premium & Powerful: Maximum filling for full visual impact
  • Pro-Grade Power: Requires Power Shot or compatible launch device.
  • Single-Use Simplicity: Pre-filled with maximum confetti/streamers + nitrogen cartridge.

Bottom line: Handheld for personal celebrations, electric for professional productions.

How do I choose the right cannon size?

👉 Handheld Cannons

Best for quick, DIY celebrations. Budget-friendly, no training needed — just aim, twist, and shoot. Professional results without the hassle.

30cm Handheld – Confetti up to 5m. Great for small parties, photos, and close-up moments.

50cm Handheld – Confetti up to 8m. Streamers up to 10m. Perfect for dance recitals, weddings, or birthdays.

60cm Handheld – Confetti up to 10m. Streamers up to 15m. The “sweet spot” for receptions, corporate events, and stages.

80cm Handheld – Confetti up to 12m. Streamers up to 20m. Show-scale power in your hands — just check the roof height first.

👉 Electric Cannons

Same professional effect, but fired from a Power Shot (or compatible base). Single-use, preloaded, and seriously powerful.

50cm Electric – Confetti up to 8m. Streamers up to 12m. Ideal for smaller venues and corporate events.

80cm Electric – Confetti up to 12m. Streamers up to 20m. The go-to for larger shows, theatres, clubs and big moments,

⚡ Rule of thumb: Match your cannon to your ambition — but keep your ceiling (and your cleaner) in mind.

Are your products safe to use indoors?

Absolutely. Our confetti is flame-retardant and colourfast—venue-safe by design. We're rebels, not reckless.

Indoor Guidelines:

  • Check ceiling height.
  • Confirm venue allows confetti effects
  • Confirm any cleaning fees associated with the use of confetti
  • Follow safety instructions (they're there for good reasons)
  • Aim away from faces and electronics
  • Metallic Confetti and Streamers aim away from power lines and electronics

Professional-grade safety standards because fun shouldn't be dangerous.

⚠️ Safety Note: Metallic Confetti & Streamers

Metallic confetti and streamers are made from PVC mylar — which means they can conduct electricity. That makes them a safety risk if fired near power lines, lighting rigs, or sensitive electronics.

What to do:

  • Never aim metallic confetti or streamers at overhead power lines. Contact with live lines can cause electrocution.

  • Keep clear of lighting trusses, moving heads, and electrical equipment. Metallic pieces can short out circuits if they land across live contacts.

  • Use paper or BioConfetti if your event involves outdoor firing near power lines or heavy indoor rigging.

Bottom line: Metallic looks amazing under lights, but it needs a safe ceiling and clear airspace. Rule the party — don’t fry the party.

What's the difference between paper and metallic confetti?

Paper Confetti: Maximum hang-time, slow-fall perfection. Lightweight pieces that float like celebration snow. Perfect for photos, romantic moments, and effects that linger.

Metallic Confetti: Shimmer and shine that commands attention. Catches light, creates drama, delivers impact. Perfect for grand reveals, stage performances, and moments that demand to sparkle.

Both are flame-retardant and colourfast.

Do you have eco-friendly options?

BioConfetti: 100% biodegradable celebration without compromise. Perfect for outdoor weddings, festivals, and celebrations where environmental responsibility matters.

Same professional quality, zero environmental guilt. Because ruling the party shouldn't cost the planet.

Can I customize colours or shapes?

Custom Cannon Fills: Up to 3 colors/materials per cannon. We recommend either two distinct colors (Metallic Silver + Blue) or mixed materials (Metallic Gold + Paper Gold + White Paper). 

Specialty Shapes: Stars, hearts, petals, custom cuts available. Because standard shapes are for standard celebrations.

Custom Orders: Call (03) 9416 8766 for pricing and minimum quantities. Professional customization for celebrations that refuse to be ordinary.

Do the cannons make a big bang?

Yes — but don’t worry, it’s more “wake up the dance floor” than “call the police.”

Handheld Cannons: Around 91.6 dB — think blender or lawnmower loud. Enough to get a satisfying pop and make grandma jump, but not enough to hurt anyone’s ears.

Electric Cannons: A step up — like a small firework burst. Perfect for venues that expect a bit of authority with their confetti.

Bottom line: Loud enough to matter. Not loud enough to cause problems.

What about cleanup?

Paper Confetti: Lightweight, easy cleanup with standard vacuum or broom. Biodegradable options available for outdoor use.

Metallic Confetti: Slightly more substantial but still manageable. Professional venues handle this routinely.

Streamers: Longer pieces, easier to collect by hand before vacuuming.

Pro tip: The memories last longer than the cleanup takes.

Can I refill Handheld or Electric cannons?

Our single-use by design Handheld and Electric Cannons are preloaded with your desired contents. Professional-grade convenience means no refilling, no guessing, no disappointment.

What if a cannon doesn't fire?

Handheld Cannons: Remove the Seal. Twist the right way. Should be as easy as that. If it still doesn't fire, contact us immediately—we'll replace it. Professional gear works professionally.

Electric Cannons: Check Power Shot connection and settings. If problems persist, our technical team provides professional support.

Quality guarantee: If it doesn't work, we make it right.
