Eco-Friendly Balloons
You can decorate with balloons and still be responsible about it. Here is what actually makes a difference, from choosing natural latex to never releasing balloons and disposing of them properly.
Decorate responsibly
- Choose natural latex where you can. Latex is a plant-based rubber, unlike foil which is not biodegradable.
- Never release balloons outdoors. Released balloons become litter and harm wildlife. Weight every helium balloon.
- Air-fill where possible. Air-filled displays use no helium and last longer.
- Bin, do not release. Pop and bin balloons after use so they never end up outdoors.
Frequently asked questions
Are latex balloons biodegradable?
Natural latex breaks down over time, far better than foil. It still should be binned, never released or left as litter.
