It is important to check the quality of the balloons you are buying from a supplier and decorator. Balloons are colorful and vibrant and are used with telling effect at weddings, birthday parties, and many others.
Birth of the New Year signifies the beginning of a new era where people make resolutions for the best outcome. New Year Balloons Dubai caters to the needs of users by offering innovative designs of balloon clusters, bouquets, and single large balloons with a New Year message.
There are many materials used to make balloons and which one is the best? Balloons are made of latex, Mylar or foil, and Vinyl or plastic. Depending on the environment where the balloons are to be used one must choose because they have different degrees of resistance to ultraviolet rays.
For example, a helium-filled latex or rubber balloon will be subjected to extreme heat when deployed outdoors. Latex is a porous material and is subjected to leakage of air when the sun scorches the earth with high degrees of temperature.
Deploying them in an open area or outdoors can prove to be wrong as the balloons will gradually shrink with leakage or sometimes burst owing to the heat.
What is the difference between latex, Mylar, and vinyl balloons?
These are made of different materials so you can expect them to be positive or negative depending on the occasion or event venue.
Latex Balloons
This material has been here for some time and in the past dried animal bladder was used to make them. Thanks to the breakthrough achieved in 1824 in rubber technology the balloon material changed to latex or rubber. Liquid rubber is used to make latex balloons and the raw material is derived from the forests of South East Asia.
A classic latex balloon is made with the milk of a rubber tree. At birthday parties you should have noticed the cluster of colorful balloons decorating the homes of children. However, latex balloons are not for long-term use because they leak gas through the porous material and eventually shrink or wither away.
However, they are great birthday decorations and ideal for one-day events like birthdays, weddings, bachelor parties, hen parties, anniversaries, and other parties that are held indoors. Cheap helium balloons in Dubai are available via door delivery and you can order them online.
These are cheaper balloons for one-day occasions and the supplier will also offer to decorate them to your taste.
Another problem with latex balloon is that it oxidizes quickly and become dull and chalky in look. Their condition can get worse under hot weather conditions and airflow.
Compared to other balloon materials latex is thin and easily ruptured. Another setback about latex balloons is the latex allergy that people may be suffering from thus the use of these balloons in a hospital environment is ruled out.
Mylar Balloons
If you have seen balloons with text or numbers printed on them you can be sure of seeing a Mylar balloon or foil balloon. Mylar is not the actual material but the name that makes the balloon.
These are texture-like foils and can spell out names, numbers, and messages owing to their texture obtained by mixing different materials.
It is made of nylon at the base and aluminum foil is added as an outer layer. The combination of different materials makes sure that the surface is fit for printing letters and messages. This may not be possible with latex balloons.
Some of the drawbacks of Mylar balloons include environmental concerns such as non-recyclable, and biohazards if you throw them away.
But the positive character of the balloon is its longevity when compared with latex balloons. They will remain afloat for more time than latex despite leaking air in small quantities. You cannot inflate or deflate Mylar Balloons because they expand or contract. High temperatures can make them look deflated or burst.
Vinyl Balloons
Vinyl or plastic is used to make vinyl balloons and they are similar to latex-made balloons. However, they are stronger in UV resistance and can last for months without withering. Sometimes they can last for a year or two.
These balloons are attached with a fiberglass stem and are pumped with air thus not requiring helium. These are highly resistant balloons that can withstand rough weather, rain, heat, and rough winds.
They are ideal balloons for the outdoors and can prove to be the best New Year balloons in Dubai. These are money savers because they don’t need to be replaced like helium-filled balloons.
