Foil Balloon Arpex number 3, gold, 71 cm (28 in)

Foil Balloon Arpex number 3, gold, 71 cm (28 in) is a metallic-number shaped balloon designed for celebrations and event decoration. The balloon is manufactured from metallized foil and shaped as the digit 3 with a glossy gold finish. It is sized to approximately 71 cm (28 inches) in height and can be inflated with either helium for floating displays or with air for fixed arrangements. The foil construction enables extended air retention compared with standard latex, while the reflective surface enhances photographic backdrops and table or stage decorations.

Advantages

The gold metallized foil provides a bright reflective surface that maintains a uniform shape and eye-catching appearance. The balloon is suitable for inflation with helium or air, allowing flexible use in both floating and non-floating arrangements. Durable seams and material reduce the risk of rapid deflation, and the size (71 cm / 28 in) offers clear visibility in party settings. The pre-shaped number form simplifies setup for numeric displays, anniversaries and milestone events.

How to use

Inflate the foil number 3 balloon using either a helium cylinder for a floating display or an air pump for a fixed arrangement. If using helium, ensure the valve is fully sealed after inflation to preserve lift. For air inflation, shape and position the balloon using tape, string or a lightweight frame as required. Avoid overinflation to prevent stress on seams; inflate until the surface is smooth but not overly taut. Store unused or deflated balloons flat in a cool, dry place away from sharp objects and direct sunlight.

Usage recommendations

Handle the balloon by the inflation valve or non-seamed areas to reduce the risk of punctures. When used outdoors, secure the balloon to prevent loss and avoid sharp edges or rough surfaces that may damage the foil. For longer display life, keep the balloon away from direct heat sources and sharp decorations.
