The Balloon Shop specialises in corporate and personalised balloon printing for business events and promotions. Based in Upwell, Cambridgeshire, it trades online as theballoonshop.co.uk and prints latex and foil balloons. Its website describes personalisation ranging from a few words to company logos and photographs, with printing from one colour to full colour.
Its printed balloons sit within the directory’s event and exhibition merchandise and event merchandise categories. The business identifies entrance promotions and balloons handed out as advertising among their uses. Alongside corporate work, it also offers personalised balloons for celebrations, including birthdays and bar mitzvahs.
Latex and foil options
- Latex balloons are listed in 10-inch and 12-inch sizes, with solid colour and metallic options. The website describes a choice of balloon colours and says it uses laser-cut artwork for printed latex balloons.
- Foil balloons are available in round, star and heart shapes and have a self-sealing valve. The business states that they last around five days when filled with helium and around two weeks when filled with air.
For both latex and foil printing, the business says it matches ink colours to Pantone references as closely as it can. Its product pages describe the print options separately: the foil pricing headings include one-colour and two-colour printing on one or two sides, while the latex headings include one-colour printing on two sides and up to eight colours on one side.
Pricing and enquiries
The latex balloon page and foil balloon page publish pricing tables, with prices stated to exclude VAT. The website also offers an instant quote facility and a quote retrieval option. Its corporate balloon page states that corporate printed balloons are available for any quantity requested.
Enquiries can be made by email, telephone or the quote form. Listed opening hours are Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, and Saturday, 9am to 2pm. The website advertises a price match promise, saying the business can beat official quotes on corporate balloons.
