How Long Will My Flag Last?
Our flags are all 100% polyester. Their flying life is determined by many factors-Hours flown, exposure to the elements-sun, snow, frosts, gale force winds etc. My recommendation is to bring them down at night, and during extreme weather events. Flagworld NZ! can supply a data sheet on how to correctly rig your halyard, to avoid stress on the flag. If you live in areas with strong prevailing winds, or have a high pole,you may be better to consider our premium heavy duty products. We recommend our 5’X’3 Ft flags are flown on poles 4.90 metres, and above, to achieve maximum effect, and positive airflow to drive the flag. There are also numerous video clips, on You Tube, from how to install a pole, to re-rigging a flagpole. If you require a data sheet, on how to rig your flag correctly ,or any product advice or pre- purchase support, please email us at flagworldnz@gmail.com
How Do I Care For My Flag?
Flags can be hand washed or machine washed on a delicate cycle.
Regular washing limits deterioration caused by accumulated dirt, and pollutants. Use a liquid detergent.(no bleaches)Luke warm water only, line dry . If you need to iron your flag use a very low heat on your iron. Flags can also be dry cleaned. Flags only flown during sunrise to sunset hours will outlast a flag flown 24 x 7.Plus having more than one flag also extends the lifetime. Never store a wet flag away. Make sure your flag can fly freely without catching on buildings, vegetation, or any other structures to avoid damage to the flag. Use a suitable pole to fly your flag. Any minor stitching repairs to your flag can be done by using a commercial sewing machine. Flags should be repaired when frayed edges appear. This will extend the flag’s lifetime. Rig your halyard correctly so your flag can last its maximum lifetime. Remember prevention is better than the cure.
