The recently introduced Qualatex® taper foil balloons offer unique decorating options for events throughout the year. Shown below are Starburst sculptures, each created by connecting twelve (more or less) 38in tapers. Each Starburst measures five feet in diameter. In the USA, professional installers typically charge $150 for a 12-balloon Starburst, plus a 20% installation fee.
The 38in taper balloon can be air-filled for extended displays, or helium-filled for events lasting less than a few days. Smaller taper balloons are available in 13in and 27in lengths and are intended to be air-filled, then suspended. Contact your local distributor for color and size availability.
