You do not need a new sign for six weeks of the year. You need something big, temporary and impossible to drive past.
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.
What it costs
Every price below is current for 2026. Plain means the balloon on its own; printed means your artwork on it. There is no quote form standing between you and the number.

How it works
Tell us the site and the season and we will size the balloon for it. Wind matters more than most people expect, and a balloon that is too large for the location spends the weekend on the ground.
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.
Garden centres and nurseries
The garden trade has a six-week spring peak and then goes quiet. Seasonal advertising should be as temporary as the season, which is what an inflatable is.
Jewellery and gift retail
Gift retail peaks in short, dated windows. Advertising that can be up for eleven days and then gone fits the trade exactly.
Stadiums and sporting events
Event advertising has to be readable in aerial and crowd photography, not only from the ground. A tethered balloon is one of the few formats that appears in both.
Holiday weekend sales
Holiday weekend traffic is heavier and slower than normal, which is the ideal condition for outdoor advertising that depends on being looked at.
Questions we get
Cold-air or helium?
Helium flies above the building; cold-air stands on the ground and needs a power point. Helium wins on distance, cold-air wins on cost and simplicity.
Can we reuse it next year?
That is the normal pattern. Stored dry and out of the sun, a balloon comes out for the same sale for several years running.
How long does a balloon last?
The polyurethane we weld is rated in years of outdoor use, not weeks. What wears first is usually the printing on a balloon flown in strong sun every day.
