Are the balloons supplied filled with helium?Updated 3 days ago

No, all our foil and latex balloons are supplied uninflated. We do not supply balloons that have been pre-filled with helium.

Can I inflate the balloons with helium myself?

Yes, balloons that are suitable for helium inflation can easily be inflated yourself using a disposable helium tank. The product description always states whether a balloon is suitable for helium.

Why do you supply the balloons uninflated?

We always supply our balloons uninflated to ensure they arrive in optimal condition.

Depending on their size, latex balloons typically only stay afloat for a few hours on average after being filled with helium. As a result, they might deflate during transport or lack sufficient buoyancy by the time they are delivered.

We also dispatch foil balloons uninflated. Experience has shown that foil balloons pre-filled with helium are fragile during transport. This increases the risk of them becoming damaged or arriving deflated.

By supplying our balloons uninflated, you can inflate them yourself when you’re ready to use them.

Can I also order helium from you?

Yes, we sell disposable helium tanks that allow you to easily inflate helium balloons yourself. You’ll also find balloon ribbon and balloon weights in our range to complete your balloon decorations.
