Foil Balloons – Balloon Fun guarantees our helium inflated foil balloons will remain full and taut for at least 3 days in balloon friendly environments. They can then continue to float for another week, sometimes longer. Please be aware cold air-conditioned air may cause foil balloons to shrivel, but they will return to a normal state when exposed to warmer air.
Hi-Floated Latex Balloons – Balloon Fun treats all latex balloons with Ultra Hi-Float solution, a non-toxic liquid which extends the balloons float time. When kept indoors, out of direct sunlight climate contralied dry room Balloon Fun guarantees our hi-floated latex balloons can float for up to 2 days, could be longer depending on climate.
Please call Dani 0417 331 889 to discuss your balloon order if you are wanting balloons for a particular event.
NB: Float times may be reduced by humidity, changes in environment and weather including elevations significantly above sea level, exposure to direct sunlight and cold air.

There is a great formula to work out how many balloons you need. Multiply the length (L) and the width (W) of the space you want to cover with balloons on the ceiling.
Then…
L x W x 10 = this will completely “carpet” the ceiling with balloons.
L x W x 7 = the perfect number for a dance floor effect.
L x W x 5 = a scattered effect for a boardroom or large area.

This is a fallacy, our latex balloons are made from rubber trees and are 100% biodegradable. They are not plastic. You can use them on your garden as mulch. Balloons do not clog up waterways or choke marine animals – unlike plastic bags. Helium is a non-toxic gas, and we don’t use plastic clips, we hand tie our balloons. Please visit the following page www.peba.com.au, for more information about balloons and the environment.
