Printing on latex balloons

Printed latex balloons are inflated while the printing takes place, screen printed, then deflated, drummed in rotating industrial dryers to shrink them back to "like new," and packaged. This is why printed latex balloons are so much more expensive than unprinted balloons.

How Latex Balloons Are Made: General Overview

THE NATIONAL LATEX PRODUCTS COMPANY
OVERVIEW OF HOW BALLOONS ARE MADE
Balloons are manufactured from a liquid rubber called latex. The balloon gets its color from the pigment that is added to the latex. Pigments are both organic and inorganic compounds that absorb certain wavelengths of visible light and reflect others. For example, a red balloon is red because the balloon absorbs all the visible light except red frequency light which is reflected back to the eye.
When were balloons invented?
Balloons—in one form or another—have been around for centuries. But the modern latex balloon—the kind you can blow up yourself—was invented in New England
during the Great Depression.

History

In 1643 Evangelista Torricelli, an Italian physicist, showed air was something more than nothing.
The balloon was invented by the Portuguese priest (at 45 years of age) Bartolomeu de Gusmão (brother of the Portuguese statesman Alexandre de Gusmão), and the first public exhibition was to the Portuguese Court on August 8, 1709, in the hall of the Casa da Índia in Lisbon.
