FAQ

How long can the balloons fly?

Flight time for latex and foil balloons is different due to their material. Latex balloons of standard size 30 cm fly up to 14 hours in the winter and up to 10 hours in the summer during the heat. This difference is the result of the fact that the balloons “do not like” the heat, the pores of the latex open up, and the helium gas evaporates faster from the balloon because this gas is lighter than air. But in aero design, masters use a tool like Hi-Float, which is added to the inside of the balloon, and when it is dried, a thin film is created, and helium does not come out of the balloon so quickly. This substance is 100 percent safe and harmless, so you absolutely should not be worried that your child may burst this ball. A ball with such addition is more expensive than a ball without one, but it also flies way longer than a regular balloon. Approximately from 3 to 14 days, depending on the brand of the ball manufacturer and the temperature conditions in the room where the balls will contain. The situation with foil balls is entirely different because the material itself is very durable foil. That is why such balls do not need to be improved. Foil balloons fly from 7 to 30 days, depending on the size of the ball. The larger the ball, the longer it flies.

Why are the balloons deflating in the cold?

In fact, the balls are not deflating! The point is that in the cold gas inside the ball shrinks, but as soon as you bring the balls into a warm room, they immediately will straighten and take the same form. But you should remember that the balls should not stay too long in the cold. For example, you should not leave the balls in the car for the night, waiting for the morning to hand the balloons to the birthday boy. Better sneak them into the house and hide in a secluded place until the morning, then they will delight the birthday person for a long time. One important note, all these relates to the balls with processing, the raw balls will begin to fall by the morning. Therefore, when ordering, be sure to specify that you need balls with processing.

Is it possible to release balloons to the sky?

This is the most painful question for us, so we will try to answer it in great detail ... You probably didn’t really think about what happens to the balloon after it disappears from your view, but releasing them into the air is extremely harmful and dangerous for the environment and especially for animals. “Balloons Blow” is an organization whose goal is to convey to people what kind of disastrous consequences for animals, the environment and even people can turn into balloons. And also promote an eco-conscious lifestyle. For these purposes, this organization has published a series of photos that explains why you should never do this. We will not scare you with scary pictures, but they are really impressive. Balloons can cover a distance of thousands of kilometers, polluting the most remote and untouched corners of our planet. This provokes a danger to any animal that comes in contact with them. Many animals are not able to distinguish food from garbage, so they may accidentally swallow objects that will harm them. “When an animal swallows a balloon, it can block its intestinal tract, forcing it to die of starvation,” explains the organization. Once the balls are blown away and fade in the sun, they become similar to jellyfish - the main diet of sea turtles. When they swallow deflated balloons, it can cause serious harm to their health, which can result in death. And in the ribbons and threads, which are tied balls, the animal can get confused, which often leads to death. In some cases, releasing balloons into the air is no better than throwing garbage into the seas and forests. This creates a serious danger to the wildlife with which we share our planet. Even if balloon manufacturers claim to be biodegradable, it often takes years, during which the balloons continue to release chemicals into the environment. Latex balloons released into the sky are dangerous primarily for animals, but foil products can lead to power cuts and sparked fires. We sincerely hope that our detailed answer to your question will make many of you think and in the future be more careful with balloons. May they better please you and your loved ones at home.

Where to put the balloons when they fall and deflate?

Dispose of latex balloons as regular garbage, the decomposition period of latex balloons is 4-5 years. It took much longer for foil balloons, so dispose of them in plastic waste containers, and dispose of LEDs from balloons as batteries. Let's give our relatives and friends not only a grand celebration but also a clean city, country, and planet!
