Here are some tips to help you maintain your flag and extend its lifespan:
Trim and Reinforce Edges
- Regularly inspect your flag for any frayed edges. Trimming, reinforcing, and re-hemming these areas can significantly extend the life of your promotional flag by preventing further damage.
Washing and Drying
- Flags can be machine washed at 30°C using everyday detergents. After washing, make sure your flag is completely dry before storing it to prevent mold and mildew growth.
Positioning
- Be mindful of where you position your flag. Air pollution can cause the white areas to turn grey, and prolonged exposure to UV rays can lead to fabric deterioration and fading. Choosing a location with less exposure to these elements can help preserve your flag's appearance.
Weather Considerations
- It is wise to dismantle your flag during adverse weather conditions, such as strong winds above 18 mph. Heavy rain combined with high winds can increase the flag's weight and put extra strain on the pole, which may cause damage.
Avoid Snags
- Ensure your flag doesn’t catch or snag on any surrounding objects. Avoid placing flags too close together and allow room between the flag and nearby objects to prevent tearing or damage.
These simple care instructions can keep your flag looking great and effectively convey your message for longer. Regular maintenance not only extends the flag's life but also ensures that it continues to reflect your brand positively.
