3x5 Flags -Custom Flags for Events and Decoration

Printed Flags for Indoor & Outdoor Use 

 

Flag Material

All flags are printed using a direct dye-sublimation printing process. This means the ink dyes the fabric rather than sitting on top of the material. This allows the flag material to act in its natural state rather than being weighed down or made more rigid with ink adhered ot the surface. This is an important factor while looking for properly manufactured flags.

The dye-sublimation printing process creates an eye-popping display. You can add full-color images, custom logos, graphics and text to your flag.

** Our fabric flags are a polyester-nylon blend. they are NOT the same material as a standard U.S. flag**

Our fabric material is temperature sensitive and due to the printing process it can expand and contract due to heat or cold. Because of this we cannot guarantee the exact size of any fabric product due to temperature fluctuations. We are not responsible for any product received that is too small or big for your purposes. If the size needs to be precise, such as if it is being installed into an existing frame or hardware, please express this to your CSR to discuss your specific application.

What is the lifespan of your flags?

With proper care and installation, our custom made flags have an outdoor life span of 3 to 6 months. We do however recommend that you take your flag down and store indoors during inclement weather to help increase its lifespan.

Do your flags come with a warranty?

Yes, we offer a warranty on a prorated monthly basis for our standard flags.

For example, a prorated warranty on a standard 3x5 flag that fails 2 months after proper installment will be replaced and we will cover 33% of the replacement cost for a new 3x5 flag.

Finishing Options

Flag Options

Single / Reverse


Single / Reverse Flag

These flags are printed on a single layer of material. This allows the ink to fully permeate the material, causing a reverse image on the back.

This means, when the flag is flipped, the artwork will appear reversed.

Double Sided


Double Sided Flag

These flags are printed on two separate layers, with a blockout liner between.

This means that any wording and/or images will always be seen in the same orientation.

Frequently Asked Questions Return to Top

Do you offer any sizes other than 3’ x 5’?

We currently offer custom made flags in sizes ranging from 1’ x 1’ to 4.5’ x 8’ (H x W). Please keep in mind prices will vary on each different size selected.  If you are looking for larger or different sized signage options, we also offer custom vinyl banners and fabric banners.

What material are your 3x5 flags printed on?

We print all our custom flags and custom flag banners using a dye sublimation process. Our flag material consists of a polyester nylon blend. All of our flags are designed for both indoor and outdoor use. Making them a versatile sign option when it comes to advertising your business or event.

Can my custom flag be displayed outdoors?

Yes! Our custom 3 x 5 flags are made of a strong polyester nylon blend material, perfect for outdoor display.

What is the lifespan of your 3x5 flags?

With proper care and installation, our custom made 3 x 5 flags have an outdoor life span of 3 to 6 months plus. We do however recommend that you take your flag down and store indoors during inclement weather to help increase its lifespan.

How do I hang a custom flag?

Each flag comes finished with two grommets (top and bottom of left side) for easy hanging. We also offer hanging clips.

How are your flags printed?

All of our custom 3x5 flags are printed using a full color direct dye sublimation printing process. This means that the ink dyes the fabric material instead of being applied to the surface. The flag material can be in its natural state instead of being heavy or stiffened with ink on its surface. 

It also makes your custom 3x5 flag more durable and easier to clean if they were to get dirty. Direct dye sublimation is the industry standard when it comes to flag printing.

Are these standard flags double-sided or just single-sided?

They are available in either a single-reverse print or a double-sided print option. 

If you select single/reverse print, then your design will print on one side of the flag. It will be a mirror image on the other side. This is due to us printing our flags using dye sublimation. 

This printing process actually dyes the flag material causing a thru-print on the opposite side of the flag. This reverse image will appear faded and any text will read backwards. 

If you select a double-sided print, your image/design will be printed on two separate pieces of flag. They're sewn together with a blackout liner in between to block any light from shining through. 

This option will show your perfect flag design printed correctly on either side. Double sided flags are recommended for any text heavy design. The print will read correctly (left to right) on either side of the custom flag.

Single Sided Revers & Double sided print flags

Do your 3x5 flags come with a warranty?

Yes, we offer a prorated monthly basis for our standard flags.

For example, a prorated warranty standard 3x5 flag that fails 2 months after proper installment will be replaced. We will cover 33% of the replacement cost for a new 3x5 flag.

Can I wash my custom flag?

Yes! Since our 3x5 flags our heat cured the ink is set into the fabric, making it machine washable. We recommend washing it on a light cycle with cold water. You can use detergent if you want, but do not use any detergent that includes bleach. Bleach will ruin the flag.

For drying we recommend air drying the flag.

What are some alternative sign options to using a 3x5 flag?

If you're considering alternatives to flags for signage, there are several effective options available.

  • Custom yard signs are excellent for outdoor displays, events, and promotions, offering visibility and weather resistance. Vinyl banners provide versatility for both indoor and outdoor use, allowing customization with graphics and text for effective advertising and branding.
  • Banner stands are portable and easy to set up, making them perfect for trade shows and events where space is limited.
  • A-frame signs are double-sided and foldable, ideal for sidewalk advertising and directional purposes.

Choose the option that best suits your specific display needs, whether it's for promotional activities, event signage, or directional guidance.
