Flag poles are a great way to establish the presence of your company and very effective in showing your brand and corporate identity. A flag pole placed at your entrance will help create credibility and show that this is the official location of your business.
Ground flag poles should be placed so that they do not obstruct pedestrian and vehicle traffic around the business premises. It is important to have enough space around the flag poles to be able to lower and hoist the flags and to be able to carry out any maintenance that may be required on the flag poles.
Flag poles can also be mounted on buildings, it is important to have easy access to the flag poles in order to maintain or change the flags. Flag poles can be mounted at 45 degree angles, however the flags tend to wrap around the poles when the wind blows, upright or ground mounted flag poles are therefore the more popular choice.
Flags flying on flag poles compliment any branding or signage on the building and raise the visibility of your company’s location.
Branding on flags should be bold and simple so as not to confuse customers, the flag is there to create brand awareness not to try communicate an entire message. Flags will flap around in the wind and hang limp against the flag pole when there is no wind, so a large, bold logo on your flag is the most pragmatic design.
