Hello Chris!Thanks so much for reaching out.The way I understand it, Totex Japan makes both latex balloons for the scientific market, and the cholorprene balloons for the toy market. Then, Kaymont is the sole US importer of the Totex scientfific balloons, and Pioneer is the sole importer of the Toy-tex cholorprene toy-market balloons.I have 50 of the Pioneer 'Toy-Tex' Cholorprene baloons-- and I wanted to compare to a Kaymont. I understand both balloons are made from the same molds, just dipped in different material (latex vs. cholorprene.) I wanted to compare them side-by-side, so I'm after a "Totex / Kaymont" specifically -- to compare to the "Toy-tex / Pioneer" balloons I have.Note the label in the bag with the balloon says 'Pioneer'--- but also 'Toy-Tex'--- which sounds an aweful lot like Totex.

Here are the ones used by the NWS Upper Air observation stations. They only say Kaymont, but I'm pretty sure they are just the importer of the Totex Japan balloons. The box says 'Made in Japan'-- but doesn't actually say Totex:

And, for the NWS balloons, they don't say Totex either--- but I'm pretty sure that's what they are-- Totex, imported by Kaymont:

I was trying to kinda confirm the above hypothesis.-Trappe
Hey, Trappe,I have a 600 gram cell, new in bag (new minus a few months in my closet), but no Kaymont markings. It’s whatever was inexpensive from Scientific Sales—probably Hwoyee. Neck is 3-1/2 inches laying flat. Don’t know how important Kaymont is to you.Give me a shout if you need it... you probably still have my cell # , or if not I can send it to you off list--me
