Flag Specifications
Our standard flag material is a 115gsm close weave knitted polyester textile, chosen for its durability and image vibrancy.
For optimum performance, a 135gsm ‘airmesh’ material is also available which, thanks to small holes in the fabric,
presents less resistance in the wind.
As standard, our flags are supplied with printed, non-elasticated 'wrap-around' pole sleeves, giving maximum possible
printed display area. For extra durability, we also offer a reinforced elasticated black sleeve, which we recommend for flags
in exposed and unattended locations, such as roadside and 24/7 retail sites, where the flag may not be taken in overnight.
All flags are printed by ‘dye-sublimation’ which uses special inks and undergoes a post-print heating process to ‘fix’ the ink
into the fabric, making it scuff resistant and washable and maximising show-through on the reverse (the reverse being a
mirror image of the design on the front).
Outdoor Performance
Naturally, Flying Banner life span depends on how and where they are used.
We recommend taking them in overnight and avoiding use in inclement weather (i.e. 24+ mph wind speeds/Beaufort scale
6). Teardrop flags can last longer than Feather flags as the banner fabric is held in tension and experiences less movement.
Flag templates available on request, if own flag production preferred.
Anatomy of our
Bearing Spindle
Engineered for optimum flag
life and performance
Our stylish and intelligently engineered
steel bearing spindle features in all our
Flying Banner mounting accessories (see
pages 87 and 88). It allows friction-free
flag rotation, so flags can easily align
themselves in the wind, minimising banner
turbulence for best visibility and reducing
strain on the flag to maximise lifespan.
