Helium blimps run from ten to thirty feet. The smaller ones are easier to fly in wind; the larger ones are visible from much further away.
How it works
Order, artwork, proof, build, ship. Most promotions run two to three weeks from the first call to the balloon being in the air.
Closing and clearance sales
Clearance sales need urgency more than reach. A balloon reads as temporary in a way that a banner does not, which is exactly the message: this is happening now and it will not be here next month.
Fairs and festivals
Fairgrounds are crowded and flat, so wayfinding is genuinely hard. Sponsors and stallholders use a balloon as a meeting point as much as an advertisement.
Construction and trades
Contractors advertise to the neighbourhood around a job site, which is a small and very specific audience. A balloon on site reaches exactly them and nobody else.
Pet stores and veterinary
Adoption days and clinic openings both need a crowd on a specific Saturday. That is a job for something temporary and impossible to miss.
Seasonal lots and pop-ups
Pumpkin patches, tree lots and firework stands exist for weeks and advertise to passing cars only. Nothing else in outdoor advertising fits that shape as well.
Questions we get
What happens in wind?
Every balloon has a wind rating and it should be respected. In consistently windy places a smaller balloon that stays up all weekend beats a larger one that does not.
Can you print our artwork?
Yes. Send vector artwork if you have it. We proof the layout on the balloon shape before anything is printed.
How quickly can it ship?
A plain balloon from stock ships quickly. A printed one runs on artwork approval, usually two to three weeks from order.
What we build
- Advertising blimps — Helium blimps from 10 to 30 feet, flown on a tether above the building. Visible from roads that cannot see your sign.
- Cold-air inflatables — Ground-standing shapes, characters and product replicas, run on a quiet blower. No helium.
- Round balloons — The classic sales-event balloon, 4.5 to 14 feet across. The cheapest way into outdoor advertising.
