These are exactly what they say they are. Polypropylene 1" spheres, made of solid plastic. They float. I use them to minimize evaporation and aid in holding food underwater for sous vide applications. They're not cheap, and you'll need a ton to cover a large cambro (10 orders is about enough to provide coverage of a 12qt Cambro), but I don't think I'll ever need to replace them, which is nice.

These solid hard plastic balls have a pleasant translucency and matte finish. They diffuse the light from an LED nicely.
