Small Balloons
Small balloons are balloons displacing less than 1 million cubic feet displacement.
Global
Western can supply small plastic membrane balloons for your
stratospheric ballooning needs. We have a number of flight proven
designs and can custom size a balloon to be perfectly suitable for your
exact specifications. Made in USA from high quality materials.
Please call or email with your project
parameters and we can recommend a suitable balloon. We normally
construct balloons from 0.75 mil (19 micron) thick low density
polyethylene. A rough order of
magnitude (ROM) cost for a 50,000 cubic foot balloon is $3000.
A 10,000 cubic foot Global Western balloon is prepared for flight with a payload over 150 pounds,
