Fireworks and environment

Sustainability plays an important role in the implementation of the event: Our fireworks partner NICO Europe is permanently developing its products in the context of sustainability.
This year, for the first time, only fireworks of the so-called Green Line will be used at the Stolzenfels location - they are noise-reduced, plastic-free and the shells are made of recycled paper.
Further information on the Green Line can be found here.

In addition, all unavoidable CO2 emissions from the fireworks are compensated. The Rhine in Flames fireworks can therefore be implemented CO2-neutral. here you can see the compensation certificate.
