Balloon Etiquette
Balloons and Temperature
Please don't leave balloons in a hot car - helium expands in the heat and this could cause your balloons to pop! If your balloons get rained on and start to droop, don't worry – they'll float again when dry. When helium-filled balloons are taken into the cold, they will temporarily deflate and will re-inflate again when warm.
Balloons - Child and Pet Precautions
Balloons are not a toy. Uninflated or burst balloons can present a choking hazard and should never be left with children without supervision. Store balloons away from pets to ensure that they cannot get themselves tangled with balloon ribbons or accidentally ingest popped balloons or their decorative contents such as confetti, feathers, or other materials. If a balloon pops, clear away any broken balloons and it's decorative contents (if applicable) immediately.
Balloons and Ceilings
Lights, paint textures, irregular surfaces and even static can all pop balloons. If you are planning on placing your balloons on a ceiling, ensure that you test it first.
Latex balloons and Oxidization: Clear balloons become cloudy quickly when exposed to heat and sunshine. Coloured balloons will take on a velvety, matte appearance.
Balloons can Pop
While we use the highest quality balloons and take every precaution necessary with your balloons to ensure they last through your event, once the balloons leave our door or we have left the venue, they are out of our control.
Float times (approx): • 11” latex – 5-7 hrs* (by using Hi-Float balloon treatment we are able to increase this float time) • 18”, 20” & 36” foils (including numbers & letter foils) -72 hrs* • Cubez, Orbz & Diamondz - 72hrs • Bubble balloons – 18hrs + * • Latex confetti balloon – 5-7 hrs* • Stuffed balloons - 24 hrs*
Weather, temperature and storage location can also reduce the length of time that helium-inflated balloons will float. Cold temperatures cause the balloons to deflate faster.
Once the item(s) have been accepted by the customer and in their possession any breakage or mishandling issues are not covered by us.
