Designs – request – advice

All things considered, the flag is an extremely lively advertising medium.
It is not a static object but a proud bearer of your advertising message,
and stands out head and shoulders above the rest wherever it flies. A flag has many faces. It can be a representative standard-bearer for a company, or it can function as a themed promotional tool or a festive eye-catcher during a sporting event;
there are countless uses.

Faber Flags is happy to help you choose a product tailored to your needs.

Request criteria
What should you take into consideration?  What we want to know from you.

  • Where the flag will hang, i.e. on a facade or from a flagpole.
  • Whether the flag will be in a stormy location or in a sheltered place.
  • If possible, we would like to know the dimensions — see the list below.
  • With standard dimensions. You can, of course, select non-standard dimensions.
  • The type of printing, i.e full shades, raster colour or full colour.
  • The number of colours, based on printing on standard white fabric.
  • The number of flags you require, or a pricing row. We can supply goods from a quantity of 1 unit.

Shapes and sizes:
The location determines the shape and size. You can use a building facade to display a last-minute message, or on a free-standing flagpole to present your message in a striking and elegant way. Below is a list of the best-selling shapes and sizes,
as well as details of the recommended lengths for the staff or flagpole, based on a net height above ground level. We are happy to advise you at any time should you require our help.

A horizontal flag is a traditional flag. The proportions are usually 1:1.5.

VERTICAL FLAGS
The benefit of a vertical flag is that it has a shorter length of flapping fabric, so wear is considerably slower. Faber Flags uses the strongest fabric types for this kind of flag.
