FAQs
Are these balloons biodegradable?
Yes, these are made from natural latex, which is a biodegradable material.
Can I use helium with these balloons?
Yes, these 12-inch latex balloons are compatible with helium gas.
Do they come with ribbons?
No, this pack includes only the balloons; you will need to provide your own ribbon or string.
Are these safe for children?
Children under 8 years can choke or suffocate on uninflated or broken balloons; adult supervision is always required.
Can I fill them with water?
While they are latex, they are designed as decorative balloons. Filling them with water may cause them to burst or lose their shape.
Troubleshooting
Balloon losing air too quickly
Ensure the knot at the neck is tight and check for small punctures or debris near the inflation point.
Balloon appears dull or dusty
Latex can naturally oxidize over time; rubbing them lightly with a soft cloth or using a specialized balloon shine spray can restore the gloss.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your balloons, you may use a standard handheld balloon pump or a helium tank. If using air, tie the necks securely using a knot or balloon clip to prevent air leakage. To maintain the best appearance, keep the balloons away from sharp edges, excessive heat, and direct sunlight, which can cause the latex to oxidize or pop prematurely. Do not over-inflate beyond the 12-inch capacity to avoid rupturing. If a participant has a latex allergy, ensure these are used in a well-ventilated area or opt for non-latex alternatives.
