FAQs

What’s in helium balloons?

Our latex balloons are made from 100% natural latex – we never use cheaper alternatives.

Our foil balloons are made from metallicised nylon.

We can treat latex balloons with a product called Hi-Float, which extends float time by around a week. Typically, this adds 25p to the price of the balloon.

Do you deliver?

Yes we do! We no longer have a physical shop. We offer a delivery and set up service on all our decor, throughout Oxfordshire, as well as parts of Bucks, Berks and Northants.

NB – 24 hours’ notice is usually required for delivery, but please call us if you need same day delivery and we will try our best to accommodate you – 01865 766777.

Can I release balloons?

We do not endorse the release of any balloons. Although our latex balloons are 100% latex and biodegradable, they still create litter. Foil and plastic balloons do not biodegrade, and foil balloons can cause major electrical problems if they hit a power line.

How long do your balloons float for?

We get asked this every day. Like flowers, there are so many different types of balloons –

Foil Balloons
Float time: around a week.

Please note, foil balloons are particularly sensitive to temperature and may not always be suitable for outdoor use. On a very cold day, the helium will compress and make the balloon look saggy. On a very hot day, the helium will expand – balloons burst in hot cars, and as a result of extreme change of temperature. On a rainy day, the balloon will sink! Foil balloons are not suitable for release.

Latex Balloons
Float time: around 16 hours.

We can treat latex balloons with a product called Hi-Float, which extends float time by around a week. Typically, this adds 25p to the price of the balloon. Please do not release balloons – they create litter and can damage wildlife.

Others
We also supply larger latex balloons, up to 6ft in diameter. Please get in touch with us for more information about them
