Latex Balloons

Balloons have always been the simplest, cheapest and the easiest way of decoration as one can be really creative with balloons. Latex balloons are a latest variety of balloons which enhance the creativity even more as these can be further molded into different shapes. These shapes are not only enjoyed by the children but even elder group appreciate the ingenuity. Try and remember any last celebration you had whether it was a birthday party, college party, school function or festival celebration at house; balloons must have been placed just all over the place.

These balloons are made from latex rubber which is a naturally elastic material. For latex balloons, the rubber is moulded into various shapes using ordinary air, or other gases such as helium, which can be blown into the balloon for their expansion. Helium-filled balloons are often deployed in social gatherings, parties, family get-together and fun functions. They come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colours, but their festive life span is 16 to 24 hours after inflation. For that reason, helium balloons should be filled right before use only. Unlike the traditional Mylar or foil balloons, latex balloons can be fixed and manoeuvred into various shapes by skilled balloon artists. Long and thin latex balloons can be warped into animal shapes, flowers and even party hats by professional party entertainers hired for birthday parties. Traditional round latex balloons filled with helium can be used to form colourful bouquets. These types of balloons are also given out as treats to party guests.
