Nyea's Party proudly carries Qualatex Balloons. Qualatex Bubble Balloons are: Non-allergenic Non-Oxidizing and will float for weeks.  They are ideal for long lasting indoor or outdoor party decorations.  

Proper Disposal of Foil BalloonsTo properly dispose of foil balloons you should  cut the  used balloon open to release any  helium  that remains, and then discarding them in a recycle trash container.   Unlike latex balloons, foil balloons are not biodegradable. They are, however, recyclable with plastic. Never release foil balloons into the atmosphere.

We sell Qualatex brand balloons at Nyea's. Latex balloons  are made from 100% natural latex — not plastic.   Latex balloons are biodegradable, and decompose as fast as an oak leaf in your backyard! Latex balloons come from rubber trees. Latex is collected by cutting the tree’s bark, then catching the latex in a cup. Latex harvesting doesn’t hurt the tree! Latex balloons are Earth-friendly! Rubber trees grow in rain forests. Latex harvesting discourages deforestation because latex-producing trees are left intact. A tree can produce latex for up to 40 years!
