Advertising flags are one of the most effective and affordable ways to get your brand seen - tall, eye-catching and impossible to miss whether they line a roadside, a forecourt or an exhibition hall. Also known as promotional flags or banner flags, they deliver instant height and movement that draws the eye from a distance, indoors or out.
Every advertising flag is custom printed in the UK using dye-sublimation on durable, machine-washable polyester, for rich colour that holds up to sun and repeated outdoor use. Choose from four shapes - feather, teardrop, crest and rectangular - in a range of sizes, with a base to suit any surface.

Our UK-produced flags are fully customisable with vibrant and faithful colour reproduction, and white or black pole pockets to match your design. Our colour control procedures ensure that repeat graphics match previous orders exactly. We can match most Pantone colours, and our sales advisors can help you achieve a design that suits your application perfectly.
For outdoor use, bold and vibrant colours work best, while sky-blue colours should be avoided. We offer double or single-sided options, with double-sided flags allowing for two different messages or legible text on both sides.

Advertising flags and promotional flags are the same product — the terms are used interchangeably across the industry. Both refer to freestanding, pole-mounted printed fabric displays used to promote a brand or message at events, storefronts, or exhibitions. Our range includes feather flags, teardrop flags, rectangular flags and more, all available with fully custom-printed graphics.
A feather flag has a tall, straight-edged feather shape that maximises branding space and is well suited to text-based designs.
A teardrop flag has a curved, aerodynamic profile that stays taut in the wind and suits a bold, single-message design. Both are advertising flags mounted on the same base system.
Our 100% polyester-based flag fabric retains its colour even when used outdoors, and can be washed to extend its lifespan. Simply wash with standard detergent at no more than 30 degrees and lay flat to dry. The flag edges are hemmed for added durability. The lifespan of flag graphics depends on usage conditions, with a maximum lifespan of six months of constant use. Proper care, such as ensuring the fabric is dry and folded when not in use, can increase longevity and save money in the long run.
