Mark Burden
Senior Firer
Pyrotex met Mark back in 2015 where he showed an interest in wanting to do fireworks. A few weeks later he was on his first display, showing willingness and desire to learn the trade. In just 2 years, Mark worked through the various levels to become a senior firer.
Marks got a heart of gold. From doing anything for anyone, cracking jokes and his bubbly, friendly personality to his keen eye for detail, Mark is the best guy to have on any firework site where the crew needs a good laugh.
Mark joined Pyrotex’s International Team and went to Knokke Heist. All round great crew member who you can always rely on.
Q&A With Mark
As a kid I used to do my own firework displays at home, powered only by Standard fireworks in a tin with a torch and at arms length, then as I got older I started working as a firer for another fireworks company before finally moving to Pyrotex Fireworx
Yes, Run a events company
Thorpe Park we blew up a fire engine and set fire to a huge effigy of Jedward
Knokke hands down
Pytorex is the best pyro company I’ve worked for in 15 years. Its like a family to me
