A flag with your logo can be seen from afar, even when a sign disappears behind a parked car. Here you put together your own mast flag, façade flag, banner flag or beach flag, from 1 piece and in a standard size or your own size. Upload your design, we'll arrange production and have the flag delivered wherever you like.

Custom flag printing in Nijmegen
A flag hangs high and moves. This makes it stand out from across a square, from a roundabout or from the car park, in places where a sign or banner easily disappears behind people and cars. Businesses use a flag to point out the entrance, sports clubs hang them along the pitch, and at an opening or event a row of flags immediately shows that something is happening. All flags in this category are printed full colour in your own design.

With a mast flag, the size depends on the length of the mast. A commonly used rule of thumb is that the flag should be about a quarter to a third of the mast height: smaller looks lost, larger drags along the mast when there's little wind. With a wall flag, pay attention to the clearance underneath the flag, so pedestrians don't walk into it. And think about the distance from which people will see your flag. Someone driving past reads a logo and a couple of words, not a sentence. The less text, the larger you can make it.
If none of the standard sizes fit, for example because you have an existing mast or holder, choose the flag in your own size and enter the dimensions you need.
You can choose from five flag fabrics, including a recycled and a biodegradable option. The fabrics have a fire certificate (EN-13501: B-s1, d0), so you can also use them indoors in a hall or at a trade fair. Flag fabric is thin and lets the ink through: on the reverse side you'll see your design mirrored. A logo remains recognisable, but text reads back to front there. Bear this in mind if your flag will be viewed from both sides.
A flag is a consumable item. Wind makes the fabric flap continuously, which wears the colour and edges; expect a lifespan of less than two years when used outdoors. Bring your flag inside during storms, let a wet flag dry before rolling it up, and store it dry and dark. If you want it flying all year round, it's wise to order a second one straight away so you can alternate them.
How a flag hangs on the mast determines how long it stays intact. A mast flag comes with tape and hooks in white or black, with thread in the same colour. The banner flag has a tunnel for a banner holder, and a wall flag hangs from a wall bracket with tape, cord and loop. For the flag in your own size, you can choose a Flagfix carabiner, which reduces the strain on the flag and mast. In the configurator, you'll see per flag which accessories you can order with it, such as a mast ring, counterweight, wall bracket or banner holder set.
A flag on your own facade or mast counts as advertising, and the council has rules for that. Temporary advertising is allowed for a maximum of 31 days per year; if it hangs longer, it's considered permanent advertising and a permit is often required. No advertising is allowed along motorways. On the outdoor advertising page you can read the main rules; always check with the council for your own location. The same applies to customers in Lent, Wijchen, Beuningen or Groesbeek, where each council has its own rules.

A commonly used rule of thumb is that the flag should be about a quarter to a third of the mast height. A mast flag is available upright in five sizes and straight in six. If no standard size fits, choose the flag in your own size.
A mast flag hangs from the line of a flagpole with tape and hooks and flies freely. A banner flag has a tunnel at the top for a banner holder, which keeps it hanging taut and fully legible, even when there's little wind.
Yes, but mirrored. Flag fabric is thin and lets the ink through, so the reverse side shows your design reversed. A logo remains recognisable, but text reads back to front. Bear this in mind if people will see your flag from both sides.
Outdoors, a flag usually lasts less than two years, because wind makes the fabric flap continuously. Bring it inside during storms, let it dry before rolling it up, and for permanent use, order a second one to alternate with.
Not always. Temporary advertising is allowed for a maximum of 31 days per year; longer counts as permanent advertising and often requires a permit. No advertising is allowed along motorways. Read the rules on our outdoor advertising page and always check your location with the council.
