Frequently Asked Questions
How long will my flag last?
|
There is no way of telling how long a flag will last – it is dependent on the weather conditions and atmospheric pollution. Life of the flags can be extended by taking the flags down at night and also in very windy conditions. |
Can my flag read correctly on both sides?
|
This can certainly be done, but in order to do this we would need to produce 2 flags and sew them back to back. Depending on the method of production, you may get a showthrough of the design which will give a confusing image. This can be minimised by the inclusion of an interlining but this then makes for a very heavy flag which will not fly. Additionally, flying a double thickness flag in windy/story conditions may cause damage to the flagpole. |
Can I include my telephone number on the flag?
|
Yes you can, but bear in mind that the flag will be in the air and moving about. The most effective flag is the one with the largest logo. |
We are having visitors from overseas but only have one flagpole outside our building – can I put the Union and the other national flag on the same pole?
|
No, this is not recommended. This would indicate that the ‘top’ nation and superiority over the ‘bottom’ nation. |
How should I clean my flag?
|
We would always recommend washing as you would a woollen. Please bear in mind however that a white flag after washing will not come back to its original pristine condition as dirt in the atmosphere will be ingrained into the fabric |
