Introduction

Feather flags are versatile and eye-catching marketing tools designed to grab attention and promote your brand. These tall, lightweight flags feature vibrant graphics printed on durable fabric, making them perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. At Reflex Exhibitions, we specialise in high-quality feather flag printing, offering businesses a powerful way to stand out from the crowd. Whether you're looking to attract customers to your retail store, make an impact at a trade show, or create a buzz at an outdoor event, our custom-printed feather flags provide a cost-effective and impactful solution to boost your brand visibility.

Printing Process and Materials

Our feather flag printing process utilizes state-of-the-art technology to ensure vibrant, long-lasting results:

Dye Sublimation Printing

We use dye sublimation printing, a process that infuses ink directly into the fabric fibres. This results in vivid, fade-resistant colours that won't crack, peel, or wash away. The dye sublimation process also allows for full-colour printing, including gradients and photographic images.

High-Quality Materials

Our flags are printed on premium 115gsm knitted polyester flag fabric. This material is chosen for its durability, lightweight properties, and excellent print reproduction. It's designed to withstand outdoor conditions while maintaining its visual appeal.

Full-Color Capabilities

We offer full-color printing, allowing for unlimited design possibilities. From bold, solid colors to complex gradients and photorealistic images, our printing process can handle it all.

UV and Weather-Resistant Inks

The inks we use are specially formulated to resist fading from UV exposure and withstand various weather conditions, ensuring your feather flags look great for longer.

Design Options

Creating the perfect feather flag for your brand is easy with our flexible design options:

Custom Designs vs. Templates

You can either upload your own custom artwork or choose from our range of professionally designed templates. Our templates can be customised with your logo, text, and colours for a quick and easy solution.

Single-Sided vs Double-Sided Printing

We offer both single-sided and double-sided printing options:

• Single-sided: The design is printed on one side, with approximately 95% show-through on the reverse. This is our standard option and is suitable for most applications.
• Double-sided: Two separate printed flags are sewn together with a blackout liner in between, ensuring 100% opacity and allowing for different designs on each side.

Color Selection and Vibrancy

Our printing process allows for vibrant, true-to-life colors. We can match specific Pantone colours (uncoated) to ensure brand consistency across your marketing materials.

Text and Logo Placement Tips

• Use bold, simple designs with large text for maximum visibility
• Place your most important message at the top of the flag
• Consider how your design will look when the flag is in motion
• Ensure sufficient contrast between text and background colors
