Balloon & Bash: Safety Standards

Balloon Arch Safety Base Plates

Leading the Industry in Unmatched Safety Standards

At Balloon & Bash, safety isn’t just a priority; it’s the foundation of our service. We have designed our operations and equipment to surpass industry standards, ensuring that our clients receive the highest level of safety for their events. Our commitment to unparalleled safety practices positions Balloon & Bash as the leader in the industry. Here’s how we’re setting new standards:

Superior Stability with Custom Base Plates

We go beyond the standard by using custom-built 30kg base plates for all our outdoor displays, far exceeding the industry’s typical 12kg standard. Measuring 60cm x 60cm, our base plates provide unrivalled stability, virtually eliminating any risk of movement. Each base plate is reinforced with an additional 25kg concrete block, totalling a sturdy 55-110kg per installation—guaranteeing a secure and dependable setup at every event.

Comprehensive $20M Public Liability Insurance

Our comprehensive $20 million public liability insurance covers every event and every guest under all circumstances, giving our clients the highest degree of confidence and security. We ensure that any possible incident is accounted for and fully covered, setting a standard few others in the industry can match.

WHS-Trained Team and Job-Specific Risk Assessments

Our entire team is trained in Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) practices, and we conduct detailed risk assessments on every job. This commitment to WHS ensures that each event is reviewed for potential hazards and planned with the safest approach in mind, providing a consistently secure environment for everyone involved.

Strict On-Site Vehicle Safety Protocols

To maintain a secure environment during setup, we implement strict driving protocols on-site. Our vehicles are limited to a maximum speed of 10 km/h, equipped with both hazard lights and additional safety lights to increase visibility. This careful approach ensures we are always moving responsibly within event spaces, safeguarding guests from the very start of the setup process.

Isolated Workspaces for Event Safety

We don’t just set up balloons; we create safe, isolated workspaces to protect patrons from any setup-related hazards. By cordoning off our setup areas, we ensure guests cannot accidentally enter active work zones. This dedicated workspace isolation is yet another measure that sets our safety standards above the rest.

Wind-Tested Products for Optimal Security

Weather-resilient products are essential, which is why all our balloon installations undergo rigorous wind testing to confirm they won’t budge, even in high winds. This extra layer of testing ensures that each installation remains solid, secure, and dependable, regardless of environmental conditions.

Additional Safety Measures for Excellence

Our team regularly undergoes safety training to stay at the forefront of the safest installation practices. We perform thorough risk assessments for each new event venue, customising our equipment and setup plans to meet site-specific requirements. By consistently reviewing and upgrading our practices, Balloon & Bash redefines what it means to deliver safe, reliable, and visually stunning displays.

Wearing Safety Vests

All team members wear high-visibility safety vests during setup and throughout the event, enhancing visibility and reducing risks associated with equipment handling and vehicle movement.

Working with Children Check

Every member of our team has undergone a Working with Children’s Check, adding an extra layer of trust and safety for family events where children are present.



Balloon & Bash sets the highest safety standards in the balloon industry. We pride ourselves on an unwavering commitment to safety, stability, and reliability, making us the industry benchmark for excellence in event safety.
