Pea Souper

Portable Pea Souper Dry Ice Machine for Low-Lying Fog

The Pea Souper is an industry-standard, dry ice-powered special effects machine engineered to create the classic, thick low-lying smoke effect. Built with a lightweight and portable design, this compact unit is easy for operators to transport, position, and manoeuvre on busy stages or tight filming sets.

Create Dense, Ground-Hugging Smoke and Fog atmospheric Effects

Unlike standard glycol foggers that rise and fill a room, this machine passes smoke through dry ice to chill it, ensuring it stays heavily blanketed across the floor. Loading the unit with 9kg (20lbs) of dry ice provides approximately 5 minutes of continuous effect, delivering a dense, premium cloud layer that does not dissipate into the air. Please note that dry ice consumables must be sourced separately. This iconic atmospheric delivery makes the Pea Souper hire ideal for:

• Theatrical stage plays and live musical theatre dream or spooky sequences

• Music videos and cinematic film sets requiring an authentic, low-ground mist

• Product reveals and live event entry pathways looking for a dramatic floor cover

• Studio filming environments where traditional fog would interfere with overhead camera views
