INK COLORS
Standard printing colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Dark Green, Royal Blue, Purple, Pink, Brown, Burgundy, Teal, White, Gold, or Silver
Add $40 per color for custom ink blends.
With a single printing order, an image can be printed in a single ink color or the ink color can be changed during the printing process to provide better contrast, such as White ink on a Re balloon and Red ink on a White balloon. See the Coca Cola example above. Add $25 for change of ink color.
TWO-COLOR PRINTING
Two-color printing is possible if the colors in the art are sufficiently separated. See the QANTAS example above. Art must be submitted for review to determine if it qualifies for two-color printing. Additional prices apply and the minimum order is 1,000 balloons.
MULTI-COLORED ART
Multi-colored art cannot be printed in color, but such images can often be converted to shades of Black. See the example for Seaborne Airlines above. Please submit your art by email so we can determine if it is suitable for this process.
PRINTED IMAGE SIZE
Images are always printed on the balloon as large as possible, unless otherwise requested.
Text will print larger if several stacked lines of text are used instead of one or two long lines of text.
SECOND SIDE PRINTING
Two-sided printing of the same image is available for orders of 1,000 or more. Add $10 USD per 100 balloons.
Two-sided printing using two different images is available for orders of 1,000 or more. Add $10 USD per 100 balloons and $25 for the second plate charge.
MULTIPLE IMAGES
As noted above, two separate images may be printed on one balloon, with one on each side.
If multiple images are to be printed, with one image on a balloon, each image must be printed as a separate order, with a minimum order of 100 balloons per order.
4. ART REQUIREMENTS
Art must be emailed as vector art saved as an EPS file. Any fonts should be converted to outlines.
Images must be provided in Black and White. Add $10 for conversion if art is submitted in color.
You will receive an illustrated proof showing how the art will appear on a balloon, as part of our quote.
