Bulk foil balloons in number letter and shape designs arranged for factory inspection

Foil Balloons in Bulk Programs

Foil balloons are popular because they hold helium longer than latex and support numbers, letters, metallic finishes, and custom shapes.

Common Formats

Tooling and MOQ

Existing shapes use existing dies and have lower setup costs. Custom shapes require tooling and sample approval. Standard shapes may start from 2,000–5,000 pieces per design, while custom shapes often require more.

Inspection Priorities

Check heat seal strength, valve function, leakage, print registration, inflated shape, warning labels, and pack count.

What MOQ should wholesale buyers expect?

MOQ depends on product type, artwork, material, packaging, and whether existing tooling can be used. Final MOQ is confirmed after specification review.

What should I include in the RFQ?

Send product size, material, quantity, artwork files, color references, packaging requirements, destination country, and target delivery date.

Can the items be packed for retail or ecommerce?

Yes. Options include retail bags, header cards, barcode labels, multipacks, display boxes, and export master cartons.
