The committee said consumers should strictly follow the user guide on the packages of the firework products to ensure safety.

The authority also unveiled a new standard on the packaging and transportation of fireworks, which includes detailed technical requirements for fireworks products during the packaging and transportation process.
The four new standards will take effect starting from April 1, 2016.
