Our Teardrop Banners are printed on our high quality SignWeave™ polyester fabric. Our single sided Teardrop Banners use a 120gsm SignWeave™ material. Our double sided Teardrop Banners are printed onto a special 145gsm Blockout SignWeave™ material and 2 of these banners are sewn back to back.

All of our polyester flags are printed using the dye sublimation process which provides high quality print and vibrant colours. When used internally (i.e. out of the sun and weather) these flags will last indefinitely. When used outdoors the dye sublimated polyester flags will fade over time - and the amount of fading will depend on the amount of UV they are exposed to. As an indication we would expect the flags to last 6 - 12 months before fading when they are left outside all the time - but this could vary dramatically depending on the conditions they are exposed to. It should be noted that flags supplied by other suppliers in Kenya will last for the same amount of time as they are all printed with the same dye sublimation process. Our replacement flags have very low prices so you can simply replace the flags when required and continue to use the same poles and bases.

The sleeve is the pocket that that pole slides into and it created using a strong fabric. We can use either black or white material for this part. Most people try to match it with the artwork, if the background is white they would select a white sleeve and vice versa. If your flag isn’t white or black it comes down to personal preference.

The artwork is printed on one side of the flag so you see the correct image and colour on that side. The other side of the flag will display the mirror image of the artwork and the colour will have less vibrancy (as the printed image has bled through from the other side of the flag). You can read more about the differences between single-sided mirror reverse and double-sided printing here

We print them on our SignWeave™ Block Out Polyester Material and sew them together (back to back) to get a high quality satin printed finish that can be read correctly from both sides.

To ensure that your Flag looks perfect and does not get damaged over time, it is important to follow the Flag Tensioning Guide that is supplied with your flag and available for download on this page.

We recommend that you use a steamer to remove any creases from the polyester fabric. It is also possible to use a warm iron but important that you use an ironing cloth so that the iron does not contact the fabric.

The Cross Base & Water Bag is finished with chrome plating and has 4 legs that fold out and back together so, when it is folded up it is very compact. When used with a filled 10 kg Water Bag, it provides good stability for our flags. The new Premium Cross Base has 2 x 50mm wide black powdercoated steel plates that are in an “X” shape and are then folded back together for transportation. The base is 825mm wide so provides great stability on hard surfaces. The 2 plates also have 10mm holes in each end, so you can attach 4 tent pegs through the holes to provide excellent stability on non-solid surfaces. The powdercoated finish provides this base with greater longevity when exposed to the elements.

Ground Spike: 1.07 kgs Cross Base with water bag: 3.5 kgs Premium Cross Base: 3.8 kgs U shaped Car tyre base: 1.75 kgs Wall brackets: 0.7 kgs Heavy Duty Square Base: 5.0 kgs, 7.0 kgs, or 10.0 kgs depending on the option you choose.

Depending on the size of your flag, you will have a choice of up to 3 Heavy Duty Square Bases - 5 kg, 7 kg and 10kg. The lighter bases are not as stable; however, are more economical as well as easier to handle and ship. For our Medium, Large and Jumbo flags you will not have all options available as a smaller base on these flags creates a higher risk of tipping. To read more about choosing the right base for your flag, please refer to our news article here.

Our Pole Sets are made from strong fibreglass and finished in a rough black finish instead of being polished and painted silver. This finish makes the pole set more durable ensuring that they last whether you are using them indoors or outdoors. As our poles made for Kenyan conditions they come with a 2-year warranty.

When assembling your flag we recommend to be mindful of its surroundings. To help minimise any damage it is best to make sure that your flag is placed in a way so that it is clear of buildings, bushes, sharp topped fences and other objects both when it is still and when it moves in the wind. This will help to avoid wear and tear and elongate the lifespan of your flag.

It is possible, however we can only guarantee our bases will fit our own poles.

You are able to add an optional carry bag to your order for easy transportation and storage of your pole set. Simply select “I would love one” from the Carry Bag dropdown when getting a quote and placing your order.

Yes, our price includes the set up cost for 1 design only. If you have multiple designs for the same size you will still get the lower bulk price, however there is a small multiple artwork charge applied for each additional design to cover our extra set up costs. Simply enter the total number of signs required and then the total number of designs into the pricing calculator above - and it will work out an accurate price for you.
