Outdoor balloon creation tips.

Read these tips to keep your balloons safe in the elements outdoors. 

Balloons

1. Higher quality makes a difference. We sell professional standard balloons which hold up better to various weather conditions if used properly. 
2. Hi-Float will help a great deal when latex balloons are outdoors in changing temperature and weather. 
3. When inflating, inflate the balloons to their maximum capacity, and then remove a touch of air.  This stretches out the balloon so that there is more give should they heat up and expand during sun/heat exposure outdoors. This will make them less likely to pop. 
4. Shade: Keep balloons in shaded areas when possible, or at least not in direct sunlight the entire day. 
5. Darker colours absorb more sunlight and are more likely to heat up, so consider lighter colours for displays in direct sunlight.  
6. If inflating balloons the night before, keep them indoors overnight as the cooling, morning dew, and other outdoor conditions are more likely to wear out the balloons.

1. Ensure you have more weight on your balloons and displays, as displays outdoor are more susceptible to wind and movement than indoor displays. 
2. Consider wind direction and where you place your balloon creations. If possible, keep them in a location which is less likely to be windy such as closer to structures and trees. 
3. Always add extra weight to the bases of your balloon arches and columns.
