There is no protocol regarding the folding of the South African national flag.

Our flags come complete with rope and toggle.

1. A small loop (about 18mm diameter) should be tied into the flag pole rope coming over the top of the pulley.

2. The toggle on the flag is pushed through the loop and secured.

3. The opposite point of the flag pole rope is tied to the rope at the bottom of the webbing.

4. Once secure, the flag is then hoisted to the top of the pole by pulling down on the rope and the rope is tied to the cleat on the flag pole.

Flags can be machine or hand washed. For machine washing, use a low cycle, cold water and a light detergent. To dry, hang the flag evenly over a washing line. Washing assists with the longevity of a flag as the dirt that collects in the fabric of the flag will over time corrode the fabric of the flag. Also who wants a dirty flag? A flag should always be kept looking clean as it represents your company brand, your country or the country of your guests and visitors.

After the flag has been washed and has dried properly, it can be ironed (low heat), folded and stored in a dry area that doesn’t get direct sunlight.

Stormy weather will damage even the best of flags, high winds combined with rain will increase the wear and tear of your flags. to overcome the problem of excessive wear & tear during high winds you can either take your flags down in strong winds and not fly a flag at all until calm weather returns or you can hoist a smaller storm flag in it's place. A storm flag is normally reserved only for the times when there are strong winds blowing.

We recommend that you provide a minimum of 2 flags per flagpole for a one year period if they are hoisted every morning and brought down every night. If your flags fly 24/7 then 4 flags should be purchased. When necessary give the bottom corner of the flying end of the flag a stitch or new hem, as this is the corner that snaps in the wind.

The benefit of having more than one flag allocated to per flag pole is that you can alternate the flags to ensure that you always have a clean, well maintained flag flying at all times. One flag is hung while the other is washed and stored then this clean flag is hoisted and the flag that has been used is washed and stored and so on. Dirt and pollution damages the fabric and dulls the colours, so wash your flags at least once a month. If you want to enjoy your flags for as long as possible, we recommend that you take them down at sunset.

A storm flag (90cm x 60cm) is usually flown during stormy or extremely windy conditions, it is a smaller flag and therefore does not take as much strain as the standard flag (180cm x 120cm), which is flown during normal conditions. The 180 x 120cm flag in the most popular size and what is used by most companies for everyday use.

Our corporate flags are digitally printed on one side with 100% show-through on the other side in reverse.

Double sided corporate flags can be made upon request, however, this requires 2 printed flags to be stitched together with a block out material between them. This does make the flag heavier and therefore prone to ripping.

The most common sizes are 90cm x 60cm (storm flag), 180cm x 120cm (standard size), 135cm x 90cm, 300cm x 100cm (portrait orientation) and 270cm x 180cm (ceremonial flag).

Flag poles start at 2.5m for indoor applications, wall mounted poles come in 2.5m, 3m, 5m and 6m lengths and ground planted or mounted poles are 6m, 7.5m, 9m and 11.5m.

The bottom part of the aluminium tubing of a ground pole is sunk into the ground and concreted into place. A swivel base pole has a base that is sunk into the ground and concreted into place, the flag pole is then attached to the swivel base once the concrete has set.

Maintenance on a swivel base flag pole is safer as the pole can be lowered to the ground and no ladders or cherry pickers need to be used.

Wall mounted flag poles are fixed to a wall by using a bracket that has a sleeve which is fixed to the wall with bolts, the pole then slides into the sleeve and is fixed into place.

There are four different brackets available:

1.) An upright bracket that is bolted on top of a wall

2.) An upright bracket that is bolted against the face of a wall

3.) An upright bracket that is bolted against the face of a wall, but is extended 20cm away from the wall

4.) A bracket with a 45 degree sleeve which is bolted against the face of the wall
