What makes a good balloon pump?

Balloons have the magic ability to delight us and are essential for any birthday party. Though balloons are fun and exciting, blowing them up isn't always fun as they require a good set of lungs or a balloon pump.  One should always use a balloon pump to inflate a balloon. Keep balloons away from eyes and face as the bursting of balloon may cause injury and do not try to inflate a balloon by mouth.  

With a huge collection of balloon pumps stacked in stores, particularly with cheap Chinese look-alike fake imports, it is difficult to choose a good quality, durable, less expensive, efficient balloon pump. Here is the guide:

What should you look for while choosing a good quality balloon pump?
1)     A good quality pump must be strong , durable,  but at the same time light weight and easy to carry.
2)      Must fit all types of balloons like modelling balloons, round balloons of different dia meters.
3)      Must inflate faster with less effort
4)      and also be maintenance-free. 

Here is our attempt to evaluate a good balloon pump we found in the market : 

A good quality Hand held Double Action Balloon Pump or Twin Action or 2- ways Balloon Pump also known as Faster Blaster balloon pump is now available in India at amazon . This twin action or 2way balloon pump can be used for inflating modelling or twisting balloons like 260, 350, 646 and also for inflating round balloons (5" to 12"), heart shaped balloons (6" and 12") and any foil balloon. This pump also inflates air mattresses, beach toys etc
This Twin Action, Faster Blaster II balloon pump is made in Sweden, exclusively for Gemar balloons, Italy for their sole official distributor in India - 'bubbly balloons' and is now offered for sale on www.amazon.in  It is more efficient than many balloon pumps available in the market as it has dual action.

This balloon pump inflates faster and with less effort because of a unique double action design where they pump air on both the push and pull strokes, which creates an even air flow. That is, the pump Inflates the balloon when you push the pump as well as when you pull the pump- bothways (twin- action), for easy, faster and effortless balloon inflation. The out stroke and in stroke give out air and this balloon pump reduces the back flow of air from the balloon to the pump.

This balloon pump is easy-to-carry, easy -to-use, and is small-sized and with light weight and hence is a good product for young adults or women of smaller build. The pump requires no special skills to operate

These balloon pumps are precision crafted from rugged durable plastic and are compact and light weight, and the nozzle is formed with a snoopy top on the handle to fit most types of balloons of different dia meters and modelling or twisting balloons without any extra adapter. 

This twin action balloon pump has a pump volume of 2 x 0.3dm³

It requires no real maintenance. To get an old pump to function like new, you can, if necessary, add a little oil that you use for preparing food. We have heard of a balloon artist who used the same for over 10 years!

This balloon pump is the same that most balloon decorators and balloon twisters use the world over. It is highly recommended for balloon decorators and also for balloon twisters, as it is durable, portable, easy to use and affordable. Have you gotten yours?


Balloons with a Twist!

Balloon animals are a delight to children.  Every child (and adult) loves to watch as a balloon is twisted and turned as it takes shape and they are great option for entertaining children. We all know that children love balloons, but even better they love balloons created especially for them by the balloon twisters

Modelling balloons are popular at birthday parties, fairs and carnivals. Twisters also perform in restaurants, and at public and private events or functions, shop openings and  side-shows at a school fair. Balloons work extremely well as a give-away for promotions or special events. Modelling Balloons are fantastic entertainment for all ages, in  addition to face painting  and tattoos.

What is balloon modelling? Balloon modelling or balloon twisting or balloon sculpting is the shaping of special modelling balloons into almost any given shape, often a balloon animal   but variety of shapes that could be modelled  is limited only by imagination of the balloon artist who  does the modelling. People who create balloon animals and other twisted balloon sculptures are called Balloon Twisters, Balloon Sculpting Artists.

Two important tools of balloon twisting are special balloons and inflation device.  The Special balloons are made in various colors and are very long and very narrow and are called modelling balloons.  Balloons are classified according to sizes and are identified by a number. The most common balloons used are “160” and “260” which means that they have 1 and 2 inches in diameter respectively and have 60 inches in length and hence the names.

Balloon models can be made from just one balloon but there are models that demand two or more. Single balloon sculptures are basic four-legged animals like a poodle, giraffe, monkey , bear, hat, sword , flower among others. Some of the multi-balloon models are: monkey on palm tree, flowers, octopus and turtle.

What is the need to approach a professional balloon artist for a balloon decoration job?

Recently bubbly Balloons was asked by an event coordinator to visit a venue for a balloon decoration job. This event manager wanted a balloon arch at the entrance and wanted to know how many balloons would be there in a regular balloon arch of about 7 feet high. We explained that there would be approximately about 250 pieces of 11" Round balloons.  At that moment the customer walked in and he was asking the event manager to explain how big  would be the arch and with how many balloons would be in it. I got the shock of my life when the event manager answered ' at least 1500 balloons in an 7 feet balloon arch'.  We did not want to be a party to this event manager's unconvincing lie and so we did not take up this job.

Always approach a balloon artist for a balloon decoration job! Balloon decoration job involves choosing the a coordinating color, design, the appropriate balloon for the appropriate occasion as per the theme and none other than a professional balloon artist can handle such jobs.
