Title:

Green Firecrackers

Value Proposition:

Green crackers are designed to release significantly less smoke and pollutants, including harmful gases like SOx(Sulfur Oxides), NOx (Nitrogen Oxides), CO (Carbon Monoxide).

Summary Application:

Plant based substituted low polluting firecrackers composition has been developed which can be widely used in various types of fireworks and crackers like flower pots, sound crackers, sparklers, chakkars etc.

Advantages:
  • These firecrackers produce less noise, typically limited to 110–125 decibels, reducing the impact on humans and animals.
  • They are made using alternative materials that are less harmful to the environment
  • By reducing the release of particulate matter (PM 2.5 and PM 10), green crackers help minimize respiratory and other health problems caused by air pollution.
