Latex balloons are flexible, biodegradable party decorations made from natural rubber sap harvested from trees. They are versatile, coming in various sizes, colors, and finishes (matte, pearl), often used for arches and bouquets. They typically float for 8–12 hours with helium, or longer with treatment.

Key Characteristics and Description:
- Material: Made from natural rubber latex (NRL), which is biodegradable. They are elastic, allowing them to stretch and take on various shapes.
- Production: Formed by dipping balloon-shaped molds into liquid latex, followed by curing in an oven.
- Biodegradability: They decompose over time, similar to a leaf, especially when exposed to sunlight.
- Versatility: Come in numerous colors, sizes (e.g., 10-inch, 12-inch, up to 2-foot), and finishes, including matte, transparent, and pearlescent.
- Inflation & Duration: Can be filled with air (for garlands/decor) or helium (for floating). Because latex is porous, helium-filled balloons typically only float for 8–12 hours, though “Hi-Float” additives can extend this.
