Notice
Stitching uses black or white thread, selected to complement your artwork.
Standard pricing covers printing up to 3 metres on the shortest edge. Larger flags require a bespoke quotation.
Allow for the effects of the display location: pollution can grey white areas, and UV exposure may gradually fade or deteriorate the fabric.
Machine-wash at 40° using everyday detergent. Dry the flag fully before storage.
Keep the flag away from its pole and surrounding objects to prevent snagging. Avoid placing poles too close together.
Take flags down during adverse weather, including winds above Beaufort 4 (13–18mph). Heavy rain adds fabric weight and, with strong winds, can put extra strain on the pole.
Lifespan varies with climate and hours of flying. A regularly used flag has a realistic maximum working life of six months.
Use the fabric specification, printing limit and care guidance together when planning a flag graphic. Select artwork that remains clear when seen through from the reverse, and consider the display position before installation. Allow enough space around the fabric and take it down when the stated weather conditions require it.
