FLAGS FOR ALL REASONS

 

Image, visual appeal and presentation - key words and key aspirations in this modern and competitive world. Words which describe the benefits offered by quality flags and banners, and aspirations which can be realized by their professional and tasteful display. To highlight your location, reinforce your corporate identity, or spread your message - PanHandling's flags and banners offer unsurpassed visual appeal and value in a modern yet timeless way.

DYE SCREEN PRINTED

The majority of our flags and banners are manufactured using this sophisticated and specialized screen printing process. Unlike regular screen printing, disperse dyes (not inks) are printed then baked into the fabric to give a soft, supple and lightweight product of the highest quality. Designs and colours can almost always be accurately reproduced, which is especially important when working with corporate logos. The main factors affecting pricing are order quantity and the number of colours involved. Dye screen printing is usually cost effective for quantities of 5 or more, with unit prices reducing as quantities increase and for subsequent repeat orders.

FULLY SEWN

For one - off flags where custom printing is not a suitable option, or if the traditional look is preferred, this method is the answer.  Our skilled machinists appliqué your design onto fabric, using our standard range of pre - dyed fabrics. You can see the skill which goes into making fully sewn flags.

FABRICS

PanHandling can offer the choice of two fabrics - polyknit and Polybunting - both made to demanding specification especially for flag and banner manufacture.

POLYKNIT

Polyknit is a finely knitted polyester fabric with a high surface sheen, used for printed flags, and especially banners, suitable for both indoor and outdoor display..... Print quality on Polyknit is sharp and colourful, and the light weight of the fabric allows it to fly in the lightest breezes..... Knitted polyester has been developed and improved over many years and is renowned as the best available.

POLYBUNTING

Polybunting is a coarser woven fabric manufactured from spun yarn, and is particularly suitable for flags flown continuously, or sited in very windy locations..... While slightly more expensive than Polyknit, Polybunting can often prove to be the most economical choice in the long run, when durability is paramount.

FINISHING

Panhandling has several well established options for finishing banners, depending on their intended use. Street banners have special heat sealed edges for durability .Interior banners are hemmed, often with an additional backing layer of fabric to enhance appearance..... We will be happy to recommend the best finishing for your specific banner requirements.
