Where it began..



Talking Balloons began with our parent company, Greenbrook Automations, who are an internationally recognised leader in the manufacture of screen printing and latex dipping machinery. The company has a well-earned reputation throughout the industry for expertise in dipping plant and ancillary equipment.

In 1987, an order was placed for a high end balloon printing machine that was never collected. So in a triumph of turning adversity into success, Talking Balloons was born.


Where we are now..

Over the years we have worked alongside Greenbrook Automations building up a successful name in wholesale/ trade printing and bulk plain balloon and accessory supply. The time came in December 2019 to expand and evolve to include a larger retail and external decoration presence ensuring we moved with the times within the balloon industry. We moved to our own retail premises on The Green, Hasland.

Talking Balloons aim is simple, to provide competitively priced, high quality balloons and event decorations. We have one the largest balloon selections in Chesterfield which continues to grow!

The Team

Gemma is the Balloon Boss Lady and has worked for Talking Balloons and Company Partners since 2006. She oversees the general running of the business whilst being a jack of all trades, definitely not afraid to get her hands dirty! There is not a thing Gemma doesn’t know about Balloons!

Beth is our Second in Command and has worked at Talking Balloons since 2018, originally beginning her journey with balloons getting to know the trade side of the business and has since taken a more senior role within the retail environment. You can find Beth usually behind the Social Media accounts, answering the phone and responding to emails of all natures (or making Gemma's 4pm brew of the day!)

Abbey joined us in November 2020 and is now our Talking Balloons Shop Supervisor. If you pop into see us you're likely to cross paths with her product knowledge and friendly advice on all things balloons and party!

Ellie joined in June 2021 as our in house Balloon decorator. Having studied Media at University, she added her creative flair, eye for detail and fresh ideas to Talking Balloons. You can find Ellie active on our Social Media pages and travelling to events/venues to bring to life wonderful decorations.

Our Partners


Diamond Domes & Dining is an event company based in the heart of Derbyshire. Born out of lockdown, their company has been established to fill the 'hospitality' gap during the pandemic. They are passionate about celebrations and believe that nobody should have to miss their special occasion – Behold, the Garden Igloo! Chloe, the founder of Diamond Domes contacted us in early 2021 and we were delighted to embark on a partnership with her wonderful innovative company,
providing Balloon décor for Garden Igloo’s.

Born in a barn

What image comes to mind when you think of "British Engineering"?

Our parent company, Greenbrook Automations, was born in a leaky cattle shed in Derbyshire, UK back in 1987.

With an authentic man-and-workshop pedigree in place, Greenbrook Automations developed into the internationally recognised leader in the manufacture of screen printing and latex dipping machinery that you see today.
Like Rolls Royce, Aston Martin, Jaguar and other champions of British engineering, Greenbrook Automations achieved success through attention to detail, ingenuity and hard graft.

With a well earned reputation throughout the industry for experience and expertise in dipping plant and ancillary equipment, orders for state-of-the-art manufacturing machines came rolling in.

When life gives you lemons..

An order was placed for a high end balloon printing machine. The machine was never collected.

What do you do with a spare, cutting edge balloon printing machine? Roll up your sleeves and get to work!

In a triumph of transforming adversity into success, Talking Balloons continues to flourish - and enjoys an excellent reputation of it's own!

With equipment manufactured and serviced by the best in the business, and with decades of experience under our belts, Talking Balloons offers the highest quality of service, fast turnover and fiercely competitive pricing.

Moving Forwards

In 2019, Talking Balloons moved away from Greenbrook Automations and instead of residing at a warehouse shop at the Factory, they found it's new home on The Green in Hasland.

This gives Talking Balloon a streamline focus, making them more visible to the public and giving them the ability to move with trends within the industry and extend the product range and offerings.
