About Flag Printing At Contrado
For business, promotion, events, decoration or just for fun, flag printing can be a great way to showcase your designs, raise awareness of your brand, make a powerful statement or add some custom flair to your home. Make your own flag online and choose from four standard sizes or select the custom made option to design your flag in any size. Made from a robust polyester fabric, your flag made can be displayed indoors and outdoors. Have fun creating designs for business or pleasure, and be assured that your flag will be printed and handmade to the highest standards, right here at the Contrado studios. We include eyelets and a pocket, so you have different display options. The pocket and eyelets are set on the left-hand side, so you can adjust or even rotate your design to suit your flag needs. Your design is printed deep into the fibers, creating a permanent print that will last forever and won't fade, even after washing. We print only one side of the fabric, and Voile de Ville has about 50% show-through.

How Your Flag Printing Works
Using a specialist dye sublimation process, ink is fused with the polyester fabric of the flag, to create a permanent and vibrant print. When you make your own flag, you can choose your perfect size and shape of flag, and even the finish. Your design is then uploaded onto our system. Select the perfect size and shape for your flag, and our team of skilled technicians will print your artwork onto the material. We print one side and the Voile de Ville fabric has around a 50% show through. Lovingly handmade to order, expert seamstresses stitch and hem your flag, creating the finish you require. Choosing to customize a flag made is a unique service and one which will give outstanding, bespoke results.
Design Tips
Your designs are printed edge to edge on the fabric, creating a statement design that is sure to attract attention. Ask yourself what you are creating a flag for. Flag printing is great for work events, as you can upload logos, branding and anything else you want. If you are launching a fashion collection and want to indicate to your guests where they should go, why not create a selection of flags with your designs printed on them? Colors, fine lines and details are depicted clearly and distinctly on the fabric, and as we make them in-house, you can opt for any size and shape that you want. This gives you unlimited options for your flag. The default setting for the pocket or eyelets is on the left-hand side, with the option to adjust and rotate your image to suit all your flag needs.
There is an average shrinkage of 0.39"-0.59" with customized flags. This equates to about 2%. It is important to factor in this shrinkage when you plan your design, so no vital artwork is lost. We recommend leaving some room, or a "bleed area" between the edge of your design and the edge of the flag, to ensure your design is not disrupted by stitching.

Print Guideline
-
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight.
Ideally your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi, this means that no resizing of your file occurs stopping any interpolation. -
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-colored or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colors and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
-
Which color model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
We advise providing images in the RGB color space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best color results. What does this mean? In your editing software, choose RGB as the working space and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
-
What does GSM mean?
Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is an international standard for measuring the weight of paper or fabric. GSM uses the weight of a square meter (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a given fabric. We class 20-100gsm as light (summer fabrics, gauzes
and fine silks), 101-249 gsm as medium (most clothing fabrics) and 250+ gsm as heavy (upholstery fabrics, and other specialist fabrics). -
What are
bleed areas?When designing your product, it’s best to make sure that your image is slightly larger than needed. In printing, the extra printed image is referred to as a “Bleed Area” or margin, and it is removed from the finished piece. A bleed area acts as a buffer for slight inconsistencies in the manufacturing process. however, it’s important to fill your bleed areas completely, or you may end up with white, unprinted strips along the edge of your finished product.
-
Do you print on garments a customer supplies?
Unfortunately not. All our garments are printed on flat
fabric, and sewn into finished products, which gives abetter finished result and all-over print. We test meticulously so that we know what getsbest results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, so if you have access to a heat press you can press your fabrics or flat garments easily. -
Can you Align a Pattern or design across panels of a garment?
We always strive for the greatest accuracy when printing and constructing your garments. However, due to unavoidable stretch or movement of the fabric during the stitching process, we cannot guarantee perfect pattern registration across garment seams. We are generally accurate within 2-3mm, which Is close enough for most
patterns, but may show slight issues with detailed geometric patterns. -
Can I print my own Labels?
Most of our garments now come with printable label space for you to add your own company information and branding! If you would like to sew in your own labels, we also offer Printed Fabric Labels here.
-
How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely
water based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colors and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility in London where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfillment.
Please note: As we make everything by hand, all sizes may vary slightly.
How can I display my flag?
You have 3 flag finish options; eyelets, pocket or plain. Use the pocket option if you want to display your flag on an existing pole (0.1" diameter). The pocket is sewn down the edge of the fabric. The eyelets allow you to hang the flag, almost like a banner, and the plain option is ideal for laying flat.
Is there a bleed area?
The flag can shrink by up to 2% during the production process. It is important to keep this in mind when creating your design. If your print has details that run right to the edge of your design, then we recommend leaving a little bit of space between the image and the edge of the flag, so no details are lost.
What sizes does the flag come in?
We produce flag printing in several standard sizes to ensure you get the perfect flag for your requirements. Choose from 18in x 12in, 2ft x 3ft, 3ft x 5ft, or 4ft x 6ft. You can also select the custom size option if you want to create a truly bespoke flag.
