Our founder Dean Lay, loved life and celebrating life’s great moments. He loved to see the reaction from the audience when confetti blasted into the air.

At the time in 1997, confetti cannons were large, heavy machines. He wanted to design a better confetti cannon that was smaller and easier to move yet, still powerful. He still wanted to create the best visual experience.

With his compact and powerful confetti cannon line, he opened the door for everyone to enjoy unforgettable confetti effects.
