Coming Up: Plastic Free July - Biodegradable Balloons: Mixed Colours (10 pack)

About this Promotion

A pack of ten multicoloured biodegradable balloons made from high quality, natural latex.

Our biodegradable balloons are made from natural latex; an organic material which is fully biodegradable. Our latex is sourced from an approved supplier with a sustainable policy regarding the management of the rubber plantation. The colours are derived from water based synthetic organic pigments (not dyes). They are non-toxic and are suitable for being used in the production of toys.

We do not condone the practice of balloon releases, even with biodegradable balloons, as balloons which are released can take months or even years to biodegrade and pose a serious risk to wildlife and marine environments. You can read about the potential harm of even a small release here http://www.ukrivers.net/balloon_fact.html

We recommend that spent balloons should be disposed of in a responsible manner, either in a compost heap where they will have the best conditions in which to biodegrade within a few months, or in landfill waste where they will also break down safely.
