Knitted Polyester
Knitted Polyester is one of the most popular materials for flag printing.
Product Description
The Standard Knitted Polyester Flag Material.
The Printroom Group offer Knitted Polyester Flags at bespoke sizes alongside our standard sized Flags and other Soft Signage. Flags are printed via a process of dye-sublimation which uses special inks and undergoes a post-print heating process to 'fix' the ink into the fabric. This makes it both scuff-resistant and washable.

Bespoke Design
You can supply your own artwork and we can print directly from your file, however we have an in-house Graphic Design Studio so we can design your flag for you. If you need help with design then please contact us at hello@printroom.co.uk. For a detailed description on how to set up your artwork, please refer to our Artwork Setup Guides.

Notice
Our thread colours are black or white. Our sewists will choose the most appropriate colour to complement your graphic.
Currently we can only print up to 3 metres on the shortest edge, to our standard pricing. Flags above this size will need a bespoke quotation.
Consider where you position your flag, as air pollution will cause the white areas to become grey and UV can, over time, cause deterioration and fading to the fabric.
Flags can be washed in a regular washing machine on a 40° wash with everyday detergents. Always allow your flag to completely dry out before storing.
Ensure that your flag doesn't catch or snag on its pole or any other surrounding objects. Do not place poles too close together.
Dismantle your flag during adverse weather conditions, including strong winds in excess of beaufort scale 4 (13-18mph). Heavy rain combined with high winds can increase the weight of the flag and put extra strain on the pole.
Life expectancy is entirely dependent on the climatic conditions and hours of flying. Realistic maximum lifespan of a regularly used flag is six months.
