In addition, a portion of proceeds from every single Prima balloon sold is donated the Big Balloon Build to support their mission to use the joy of balloons to help children and animals in need.
  • Are Prima balloons safe for children and pets?
    Inflated balloons are generally accepted as safe, but please keep uninflated or broken balloons away from children and pets as they do pose a choking or suffocation hazard. If a balloon does break or pop, collect and discard all pieces of the broken balloon immediately. Remember that adult supervision is always required when children, especially under the age of eight (8), play with any type or brand of balloons.
  • Are Prima balloons environmentally friendly?
    Contrary to what most people think, latex is NOT plastic – it’s a naturally occurring rubber that comes from trees and biodegrades at the same rate as an oak leaf! And since our packages are plastic-free as well, Prima is one of the most sustainable balloon brands in the world.
  • What’s the best way to dispose of Prima balloons?
    When you’re done with your balloons, pop them and throw them in your regular trash can. We recommend cutting off the tips beforehand… and please NEVER EVER release balloons into the environment!
  • What’s so bad about releasing balloons?
    In addition to littering simply being bad for the environment and a selfish act, latex balloons could pose a choking hazard to young children and pets – especially if they pop/break after you release them. Also, foil/mylar balloons contain metals that can destroy power lines if they come into contact with them – which could lead to power outages and fires.
  • What is the Party Animal program?
    Prima's Party Animals are ambassadors hand-picked to represent the brand and prove to the world that the best only use Prima. Each artist picks their own real-live animal to sponsor through sales of Prima balloons as part of the Balloon That Caresâ„¢ program.
  • Can I become a Party Animal?
    Anyone can apply or nominate their favorite balloon artist to become a Party Animal. However, there are a limited number of spots, and we can’t accept everyone... but that doesn’t mean we can’t find another way to work together!
  • Are the Party Animals paid to represent Prima?
    No, it didn’t feel honest or right to pay artists to be loyal to our brand. While we do share the love with them in the form of balloons and inflation equipment, the Party Animals are here because they love the product and feel supported by Prima to be their fabulous selves.
