Custom Aerial and Circus Equipment Manufacturing

Bespoke Fabrication

As the circus industry continues to evolve, specialising in custom circus equipment has become increasingly important. These play a crucial role in ensuring that circus performers have the equipment they need to execute their acts safely and effectively.

One of the things that sets us apart from other companies in the industry is its commitment to custom design. As well as offering a catalogue of pre-made products, Firetoys works closely with each client to create equipment that meets their specific needs and requirements.

We produce a wide range of custom circus equipment, from aerial silks and trapezes to acrobatic apparatus and stage props.

SAFETY

At Firetoys, safety is always the top priority. We follow strict safety standards and guidelines and can work closely with clients to ensure that equipment is installed and used correctly. Whether a performer is working on a small stage or in a large arena, they can trust that their equipment will be safe, reliable, and up to the task.

Each piece of equipment is designed with safety, durability, and performance in mind, and is rigorously tested to ensure it meets the highest standards. We use only the best materials, including high-strength steel, aircraft-grade aluminium, and top-quality fabrics and padding.

PRICING AND TIME FRAME

Custom products will have a higher cost than our "off the shelf" products. Pricing will be per request and will vary based on materials, labour, and the size of the project. For example, many aerial items will require producing 2 and destroying 1 for testing.

We will aim to get the product completed as quickly as possible without compromising on quality and will keep you updated along the way. If it is needed by a particular date please let us know upon request.
