About Us
Black Cat Fireworks and Standard Fireworks have lit up the sky since 1891. We are based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, and we are one of the UK’s most trusted fireworks brands. We supply major retailers including Tesco, Lidl and Costco, as well as independent shops, DIY stores and local customers from our factory shop. You can also buy Black Cat Fireworks directly from our online shop. We offer free midweek delivery to most of England, Scotland and Wales.
Innovation
At Black Cat Fireworks, we constantly push the boundaries of consumer fireworks. Our technical design teams run a rolling programme of new product development each year. We bring exciting new fireworks to market every season. Our goal is simple – we create fireworks that outperform the competition and meet all UK legal requirements.
Safety
We build every firework to meet 100% of UK legislation requirements. All our products carry CE and UKCA (BS EN 15947) certification. Our management team, laboratory, and ISO 9001 testing centre work together on every product. We manufacture every firework to specification and on time. When you buy Black Cat Fireworks, you shop with complete confidence.

Together, we get the right product to the right place at the right time – whether that is a major supermarket or your front door.
