Interestingly enough, confetti does come in a flameproof version (for the record, I haven't tried it, but given it is a party item like crepe paper, which is flameproof, it is not surprising)

both are listed as flameproof, the second source also says it is biodegradable (will win some points with landowners of the rocket launch site.)
It is a bit pricey, amazon is 1$ per ounce. Second source is 31 euros per 1 kg bag with the VAT.
I am wondering if this would work as a replacement for wadding?
In addition to the cool factor (every launch a party! @Daddyisabar are you listening!?), this would also serve the same purpose as tracking powder, except I think this might even be easier to see than tracking powder (it has a mylar version which should sparkle in sunlight in the biodegradable version!)
Anybody try this (or see any significant downsides?)
