The advantages of using the system as opposed to traditional fireworks or pyrotechnics are as follows:
- ​Much safer than using traditional pyrotechnics.
- No large safety or exclusion zones are required as the units produce cold fallout which is perfectly safe (the audience can pass their hands through the effect without any concern).
- Can be used in locations where fireworks and pyrotechnics are not permitted.
- Low smoke output.
- Granulated metal does not go out of date.
- Rigging time and crew requirement is dramatically reduced when compared to traditional pyrotechnics, again, making them far more cost-effective.
- The system is ideal for permanent installations or multiple date productions as they remove the need for re-loading.
