Care & Maintenance

Wash graphics in a regular washing machine at 30°C with no detergents — allow to dry completely before storing
Dismantle during adverse weather — do not use in winds exceeding Beaufort Scale 4 (13-18mph)
Ensure the flag does not catch or snag on its pole or surrounding objects
Do not place poles too close together
Units may lean slightly depending on direction faced — this is normal behaviour, secure the base as firmly as possible
Air pollution may cause white areas to grey over time — UV exposure can cause gradual fading
Realistic maximum lifespan of a regularly used flag is six months
Not suitable for double-sided flags

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Flamingo Economy Flag?

The Flamingo Economy Flag is a budget-friendly freestanding display flag printed on knitted polyester, mounted on a black pole with a hollow base that can be filled with sand or water for stability. It is a cost-effective alternative to premium flag systems, suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

How do I stabilise the base?

The hollow base has a 15L capacity and can be filled with sand or water to provide stability. When filled, the unit weighs approximately 15kg — significantly more stable than the 2.6kg empty weight. Always fill the base as fully as possible for maximum stability, particularly in outdoor environments.

Is the Flamingo Economy Flag available double-sided?

No — the Flamingo Economy Flag is not suitable for double-sided graphics. For a double-sided flag option, see our feather flags or fin flags which are available in single and double-sided versions.

How long does it take to assemble?

The Flamingo Economy Flag assembles in approximately 5 minutes using easy push-fit connections — no tools required. One person can assemble the unit independently.

What is the difference between the Flamingo Economy Flag and a feather flag?

The Flamingo Economy Flag is a budget freestanding flag with a self-contained fill base — no separate base purchase required. Feather flags use a separate pole system with a choice of base options purchased independently, and are available in a wider range of sizes including extra large. The Flamingo is the simpler, more affordable all-in-one option. See our feather flags for a more versatile alternative.

Can I use the Flamingo Economy Flag outdoors?

Yes — the Flamingo Economy Flag is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Always fill the base fully with sand or water for outdoor use, and dismantle during adverse weather conditions including winds exceeding Beaufort Scale 4 (13-18mph).
