Customising your own balloon is easy. Here’s how you do it:

1. Decide On Your Print 

The first step is choosing the print on the balloons. For corporate events, companies typically choose to print their logo on company colours. For more personal events like birthdays, graduations, and other celebrations, our customers typically use the celebrants’ picture as the main print. Quotes and messages are also popular options for our print.

If you don’t have a design in mind, you can consult with our team to find the print you like. Our team of designers will help you navigate through font, colour, and image choices when designing your custom balloon.

2. Select A Balloon Shape  

Next, you choose the design shape. We offer the standard heart and round shape in different sizes for latex balloons.

If you want your custom balloon to be a little more creative, you can also have the shape completely customised. We’ve done everything from rocket-shaped balloons to elephant balloons out of printed foil. Using a custom shape is a great way to stand out in a crowd. It’s an effective branding strategy and will really get your point across.

3. Select Balloon Size  

Each occasion calls for a different sized balloon. For events that are organised for marketing purposes (branding, sales, company promotions), we recommend bigger balloon sizes for maximum impact, and 72 cm balloons work best for this purpose.

For birthday parties and similar events, we recommend getting your custom balloon printed on 30 cm to 40 cm sizes. At this size, they still provide the desired impact, without taking away from the rest of the celebration.

Our standard sizes include:

• 30 cm round balloon
• 40 cm round balloon
• 72 cm round balloon
• 30 cm heart balloon

For sizes outside this range, you can work with our design team to find a custom size and shape that works best for your purpose.

4. Decide Between 1 Or 2-Sided Printing 

Choosing between one or two-sided printing depends on what you’re using your custom balloons for. Marketing-related events benefit best from two-sided printing so your audience can see your logo and message from both sides.

On the other hand, two-sided printing also works for personal events: on one side you can print out a message and on the other, you can print an image. There are different ways to mix and match your two-sided print. It all depends on what you’re using your custom balloons for.

5. Decide Ink Colours  

After finalising design details, it’s time to decide what colour balloon you are going to use and what ink colour you want. Our specialty custom balloon printing equipment can accommodate a range of colours, so the only limit is your imagination.

6. Make Final Specifications 

At Specialty Balloon Printers, we make custom printing easy. We accommodate requests for a single job order. For example, you can specify if you want your balloon to be printed on assorted colours, or if you want some of the balloons to be one-sided and the others to be two-sided. We go above and beyond to make your custom order convenient and seamless.

7. Upload Your Own Logo Or Design 

After discussing the rest of the details with our team, we’ll ask you to email the final logo or image to prepare the balloons for printing. If you don’t have your own design, our team will be in charge of creating a custom design for you. At this point, we’ll send you various mock-ups and help you decide the best print for your balloon.
