Single or Double sided Flags
What is the definition of single sided flags? Single sided flags are flags that display 100% ink on the front side, while the back side allows for approximately 85-90% bleed through.
To ensure no transparency, our double sided flags are constructed with a middle block out material. Each flag is printed twice and then carefully sewn together, allowing for a clear flag image on both sides.
Flag Fixtures For Hanging
What fixtures should you choose?
The primary fixtures for flags typically include rope and clips, though alternative options are also available, such as:
- Rope and clip
- Eyelets/Grommets
- Rope loops
- Sleeve
- Rope toggle
