I've used this:
http://www.americandj.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ItemNumber=59&MainId=3&Category=Analog_Controllers
for similar applications (co2, confetti, misc). The relay pack uses mechanical relays (5a per ch). You can modify the switch arrangement if you're handy with a soldering gun to either eliminate the toggle switches or set up for individual safeties.

I see a lot of these custom made in the same fashion as pyro controllers.

Alternatively I see dmx controlled relay packs used quite often as well, as it's easy to build fx into cue lists. This is my personal preference, and a 4 channel relay pack is quite cheap (under $150).
