Airfill balloons are 2-inch to 16-inch foil balloons that do not float with helium because they are too small for the helium to overcome the weight of the balloon. These balloons are filled with air and typically require heat-sealing, a cup, and a stick.

Self-sealing balloons that are 18 inches and float with helium are the most common type of balloon. Party Balloon offers a separate category for airfill foil balloons to make shopping more convenient and to help prevent purchasing the wrong type of balloon.
