Concerts and festivals
The artist's entrance
A line of fire across the front of the stage on the first chord.
Effect · Showven · Explo
Real fire, under control.
Columns of flame fired to the second, in time with the music. For open-air stages, stadiums and the entrances nobody forgets.
How it works
Inside the effect.
Fuel
The uFlamer uses Isopar liquid, which the manufacturer presents as safer and less restricted than gas. The Explo GX2 uses propane or butane, in a bottle or cartridge. The SFX Flame Box runs on a gas canister.
Ignition and control
Electronic ignition and DMX control from the desk, so each flame comes out at the right time.
Height to suit
The nozzle and the fuel set the height: 8 to 10 m on the uFlamer, 2.5 to 6 m on the GX2. For indoors, the GX2 has its own nozzle.
When to use it
Three moments that count.
Sports
The teams' entrance
Columns of fire on the pitch or in the arena as the players come out.
Weddings
The cake cutting
Flames beside the cake, with the cold spark fountains, according to the rules of the estate or venue.

Safety
Planned before firing.
The plan of positions, distances and shots goes with the proposal.
- Each machine has a safety zone free of audience and flammable materials, set out in the plan before the event.
- The uFlamer has a tilt sensor and a safety lock in test mode.
- Indoors, flames depend on the venue's rules. Where they are not possible, cold sparks are the alternative.
- Shots are fired by a STAGE FX operator with a direct view of the stage.
Frequently asked questions
Before you ask.
Can it be used indoors?
Only if the venue allows it and after we have assessed the space. In function rooms and hotels we usually suggest cold sparks.
What if it rains?
The uFlamer has IPX3 protection against splashing water. In heavy rain, we reassess on site.
Does it sync with the music?
Yes. The machines are controlled by DMX from the operator's desk.
Can I buy the machines?
Yes. STAGE FX also sells equipment and consumables. Ask for a proposal and tell us how you intend to use them.
