12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloons are round latex balloons with a reflective Metallic appearance for wholesale party-supply, retail, distribution and event-decoration programs. Borun Balloon Factory manufactures the 12-inch Metallic Latex Balloon range in 2.8 g and 3.2 g unit-weight specifications. Wholesalers and importers should specify the exact gram weight, Metallic color, order quantity and packaging before requesting a factory quotation because a 2.8 g order and a 3.2 g order are different purchasing specifications. The standard minimum order quantity is 5,000 pieces.
The defining characteristics of a 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon are its 12-inch round format, latex construction, reflective Metallic appearance and confirmed 2.8 g or 3.2 g unit weight. The Metallic surface gives the inflated balloon a visually different appearance from matte, macaron, pearl and retro latex balloon finishes without changing the basic round 12-inch product format.
The 12-inch format can serve as a principal balloon size in wholesale retail packs, event-decoration inventory and coordinated balloon assortments. For a commercial order, the product should be identified by size + gram weight + Metallic color + quantity + packaging rather than by the generic description “Metallic Balloon.”
The 2.8 g and 3.2 g versions belong to the same 12-inch Metallic Latex Balloon size class, but they are not interchangeable quotation references. The gram weight should be locked before wholesalers compare factory quotations, approve physical samples or place repeat orders.

| Nominal size | 12 inch | 12 inch |
| Finish family | Metallic | Metallic |
| Factory quotation | Quotation should explicitly state 2.8 g | Quotation should explicitly state 3.2 g |
| Physical sample | Sample should correspond to the 2.8 g specification | Sample should correspond to the 3.2 g specification |
| Repeat order | Reference the previously approved 2.8 g specification | Reference the previously approved 3.2 g specification |
| Performance conclusion | No universal float-time, burst-resistance or service-life conclusion from gram weight alone | No universal float-time, burst-resistance or service-life conclusion from gram weight alone |
Send the 2.8 g or 3.2 g target specification, required Metallic color, estimated quantity and pieces-per-pack requirement. Borun Balloon Factory can confirm the exact wholesale 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon specification and sample requirement before a complete quotation is prepared. The same specification can also be sent through the website WhatsApp floating window or online chat.
A physical sample should represent the exact 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon that a wholesaler intends to purchase. Where a sample is required, Borun Balloon Factory normally prepares the sample in 3–5 working days after the required specification is confirmed.
Xiongxian Borun Latex Products Co., Ltd. has manufactured balloons in Xiongxian, Hebei since 2006. Borun Balloon Factory operates 15 balloon production lines across multiple balloon categories. Five production lines are allocated to Latex Balloon forming, and three additional production lines are allocated to Custom Printed Latex Balloon production.
The 15 production lines are factory-level manufacturing resources rather than 15 lines dedicated specifically to 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloons. For a wholesale 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon order, the more relevant production evidence is the connection between the selected 2.8 g or 3.2 g specification, the approved Metallic color, physical sample, quantity, packaging and production order.
This specification-based approach gives importers, wholesalers and distributors concrete purchasing references instead of relying on broad descriptions such as “premium Metallic Balloon,” “heavy-duty balloon” or “better quality balloon.”
Wholesale packaging: every 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon purchase should state total pieces separately from pieces per bag or finished retail package. This prevents a bulk quantity from being mistaken for the individual pack count required by a distributor, retailer or e-commerce seller.
Custom printed 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloons: the standard custom printed Latex Balloon minimum order quantity is 5,000 pieces per design. Printing supports 1–6 print colors and up to 5-side printing where the confirmed 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon and approved artwork allow.
Customized balloon packaging: Borun Balloon Factory can coordinate customized packaging through its long-term affiliated packaging manufacturing partner. The external packaging manufacturing operation is not represented as in-house Latex Balloon production.
Compliance documentation should be reviewed against the exact 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon specification and destination-market requirement. Borun Balloon Factory does not treat one certificate or report as universal evidence for every Latex Balloon configuration.
Applicable EN 71-1/2/3 documentation and an EU Declaration of Conformity can also be reviewed for the confirmed wholesale order where relevant. Importers should state the destination market when requesting compliance documentation so the applicable scope can be checked.
Send the 2.8 g or 3.2 g specification, required Metallic color or accepted reference, total quantity, pieces per bag, packaging requirement, destination country and requested delivery date. For custom printed 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloons, also provide the artwork file, print colors and print positions.
Borun Balloon Factory uses 2.8 g and 3.2 g as the current 12-inch Latex Balloon gram-weight references. A wholesale inquiry, physical sample, quotation and repeat order should identify the exact gram weight so every purchasing document refers to the same 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon specification.
If a wholesale program already has an approved gram-weight specification, use the same gram weight for the new quotation and repeat order. For a new wholesale program without an approved specification, compare the corresponding physical samples and factory quotations rather than assuming that one gram weight is automatically better for every application.
No. Gram weight alone does not establish a universal helium float time, burst resistance or service-life result. When a wholesale purchasing requirement depends on a specific performance result, that result should be evaluated using the exact 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloon specification under defined test conditions.
The standard minimum order quantity is 5,000 pieces. For custom printed 12 Inch Metallic Latex Balloons, the standard minimum order is 5,000 pieces per design. The quotation should also identify the exact gram weight, Metallic color and packaging specification.
Yes, where a physical sample is required. Sample preparation normally takes 3–5 working days. The sample request should identify the 2.8 g or 3.2 g specification, Metallic color and relevant packaging requirement so the physical sample corresponds to the balloon being considered for the wholesale order.
Yes. Standard custom printed Latex Balloon orders start at 5,000 pieces per design, with 1–6 print colors and up to 5-side printing where the confirmed balloon and approved artwork allow. Customized balloon packaging can be coordinated through Borun Balloon Factory’s long-term affiliated packaging manufacturing partner.
Send the required 2.8 g or 3.2 g specification, Metallic color or accepted reference, total quantity, pieces per bag, packaging requirement, destination country and requested delivery date. Include artwork, print colors and print positions when custom printing is required.
For applicable Latex Balloon specifications and destination markets, Borun Balloon Factory can review relevant CPC, CE and EN 71-1/2/3/12 documentation. Confirmed references include CE certificate and test report FTC25426085-2, CPC test report FTC25426085-1 and EN 71-12 certificate RC2606114455. An EU Declaration of Conformity can be issued where applicable to the confirmed order.
