We’re sorry that we had to move Stanford a week earlier than planned – this to allow Nick and Lucy (owners) to support a charity event LifeBeat.

Quiet fireworks

Quiet fireworks

Quiet fireworks again… this weekend it’s now 7 displays MLE are firing around the country.  A very busy week for the staff, with 2 of us down at Plymouth assisting one of the teams – mean while collections and deliveries of our professional CAT4 display fireworks and fusing/preparation for the weekends shows kept everyone else busy.

Lee and Ben have been working hard over the past few weeks getting ready for our normal weddings, but also for the MLE display at Belvoir Castle next Saturday (22nd August).

Can you do a firework display last minute?

Sunday, July 19th, 2009

Yes, is always the answer at MLE.  We had a busy weekend including a display that landed with 1 days notice.

A site we work at quite a bit made life a little easier – so the show was prepared and a team arranged to fire the show.   We quite enjoy challenges so give us a ring!

Meanwhile the company is busy preparing for the event on Saturday 1st August at Stanford Hall www.fireworkchampions.co.uk  Tickets are still available so grab them whilst you can!

Just completed for a client, the new design of the FireByWire radio modem allows displays to be fired from multiple locations in two operating modes.

1) Laptop synchronisation (with delay calculations being accounted for)
2) Cable replacement mode – literally a radio replacement for an existing cable between sites or modules

Available in 20km and 50km configurations.  Please contact Mat for further information on 01327 876 037 or mat@mlepyrotechnics.co.uk.

Gala Fireworks

Sunday, June 28th, 2009

Quite often we’re firing firework displays on Sunday, infact this is the second week running – but we really don’t mind!  A lot of our firing crew love fireworks and would quite happily spend Sunday setting up and firing shows all week long.

Tonight we’re also providing fireworks for a Gala event, an old client who has been using MLE for many years.  More and more student balls, summer concerts, festivals and galas are celebrating with firework displays and pyromusicals.  Prices start at just £600 fully inclusive for a 5 minute display, and just £1000 for a 3 – 4minute pyromusical fireworks spectacular.

The phone lines are very busy with ticket orders for our firework champions events (www.fireworkchampions.co.uk) even today.

A special consignment landed at Felixstowe yesterday, but it’s not fireworks… we’ll be sending a lorry down to collect it this week… more soon!

Red strobing fireworks

Friday, June 19th, 2009
Citronella Bamboo Candles

Citronella Bamboo Candles

MLE have recently taken delivery of some very new and exciting red strobe shells.  Adding an extra dimension to our displays, these shells are quite rare and yet to be seen at shows in the UK.

We’re including them in all of our shows where site conditions allow – just another reason why people are choosing MLE to fire at their event.

 Several other new fireworks have been introduced into our forthcoming displays – it’s our moto to try and keep at the forefront of the industry.

Meanwhile we’re busy getting ready for upcoming shows this weekend and engineer, Lee, is busy making more cake racks for the upcoming season.

Next week sees some exciting items landing into the UK, we have 2 deliveries – one a container of citronella bamboo candles, the other… well thats a surprise we’ve been waiting since January for… more soon!
