Tips On Choosing The Right Custom Flag

I never realised that you could get flags custom made from so many places and it's so easy

. I've just had one made for my friends 40th birthday. I cannot wait until he comes into work next week and sees his face on the flag outside the office.

So here are my tips on choosing the right custom flag.

Start by choosing the design; this generally tends to be a company logo or brand on company colours but it doesn't have to be, it can be anything it could even be a picture of you (for the vain amongst us), a friend (for the practical jokers amongst us) or a picture of a venue. Full photo image designs on custom flags are a great way to promote and advertise your event or business.

If you are struggling to design your flag, many flag makers will have an in house designer or design team ready to make some proofs up for you before production. Your options are the same for custom and regular shaped flags.

The next thing to consider is how the design will be put onto the flag; there are commonly three main ways, digitally printed, dye printed and hand sewn.

In my opinion the most aesthetically pleasing flags are hand sewn, but the price is a lot higher than the printed ones. If budget is a constraint then the method of making the flag should be driven from the quantity required. The complexity of the design of your custom flag will ultimately determine the price. Taking that aside, if you were to have one made then printing digitally would be the cheapest and dye printed flags would be the most expensive, where as if you were to have 100 made the dye printed method would be the cheapest per flag. Having one flag hand sewn should always be cheaper than having one flag made using the dye printing method. The price can vary from retailer to retailer but I found that I can get a full photo image design on a digitally printed flag for around 100 and if you need 100 custom flags making with the same design then you can get them from as little as 20 each.

I found that most digitally printed flags are made from knitted polyester and most dye printed and hand sewn flags are made from woven polyester. They are not limited to polyester but these are the most common ones I found.
