Custom Flag Printing – Detailed Description
Want your brand or message to fly high and be noticed from miles away?
Custom-printed flags are the ideal way to grab attention, whether you’re promoting your business, cheering for your favourite sports team, or adding flair to a rally or event.
But here’s the challenge: many buyers struggle with flimsy materials that tear over time or dull print quality that fails to pop.
At Orchid Digitals, we’re here to ensure that when you print your own flag, you will not have to face the above woes.
We provide vivid, high-resolution prints on premium fabric materials that deliver a finished product that has functionality and attention-grabbing looks. Whether you want lightweight satin flags that flutter beautifully in the breeze or robust double-sided flags designed for maximum visibility, we have an option that fits your needs.
From small-scale promotional flags for advertising or for biker rallies, to expansive corporate branding logo flags that dominate event spaces, our expertise ensures you get world-class results every time.
With Orchid Digitals, your personalised flags won’t just fly in the wind—they’ll steal the spotlight!
Types of Personalised Printed Flags Available At Orchid Digitals
For a super premium look, opt for our silky satin fabric. This material has a slightly glossy finish that enhances the vibrancy of your flag design, making it truly eye-catching.
Moreover, it offers a wonderful tactile feel and is pleasant to touch. If you plan to position your flag nearby, such as behind a desk in an office, people will be close enough to touch and feel the material. Therefore, it makes sense to choose this premium material.
This slightly coarse and textured material works well for most flag printing jobs. It’s affordable and tough, making it ideal for everyday applications.
This material is lightweight and gets the job done at a lower price point. However, it is slightly coarse and has a rough feel.
You can use this material if you’re planning to hoist your flag high in the air on top of a tall building where people are not close by to touch the fabric.
Need a flag design that looks the same from both sides? Our mesh/netted fabric is your best bet. The tiny gaps in the weave allow the printed image on your finished flag to be visible from both sides without needing two stitched layers.
This means reduced weight and cost, especially for asymmetrical or symbol-driven designs that stay consistent even when mirrored.
One disclaimer I need to place here is that the image that seeps to the reverse side of the mesh fabric print will look slightly less vibrant than the image reproduced on the front.
This is because a small percentage of the printing inks gets absorbed by the fibres of the material.
Also, this material does not exactly feel like cloth but has a slightly more plasticky feel.
Properties And Characteristics of All Our Custom-Printed Flags
Fade Resistant
We use eco-solvent or UV inks to print on fabrics. These inks are highly resistant to fading in the sunlight.
Waterproof
Our prints are water-resistant. Waterproof prints are an important attribute in the case of flags that need to be used outdoors.
Crisp & Sharp Image Quality
Moreover, inkjet printing is extremely sharp and can faithfully reproduce images at an amazingly high resolution.
Size No Bar
Since our printing machines print on rolls of cloth, we can generate huge-sized flags (like 5 feet by 10 feet in size) without any joints or seams. Flags of larger sizes are printed in parts and stitched together.
What are Flag Prints Used For? Applications of Prints on Thin-Fabric Flags
Corporate Branding and Events
Make your business stand out by displaying your logo on a custom-printed flag. Hoist it up at your corporate headquarters or use it during promotional events to establish a strong visual identity. Tall flagpoles featuring your brand can lend a sense of grandeur to your space and ensure visibility from afar.
Sports Events and House Flags
Whether it’s a school sports day or an international competition, flags bring energy and pride to any sporting event. Get your school’s house emblems printed on flags or create custom designs displaying team mascots to enhance the spirit of camaraderie. Die-hard fans can even carry flags to cheer on their favourite teams during matches!
Rallies and Social Movements
Flags have historically been symbols of unity and purpose. From political rallies to awareness campaigns, custom flags bearing a message or emblem are an excellent way to make your cause visible and rally supporters.
Marathon and Race Flag-offs
Races and marathons need that iconic flag-off moment. Sponsors, event organisers, and race leaders can leverage custom-printed flags that prominently display their branding during these exciting start-line moments.
Biker Rallies, Celebrations and Gatherings
Hosting a biker rally with your gang? Organising a family reunion or a themed celebration? Custom-printed flags featuring your group’s logo, motto, or even artwork can serve as memorable keepsakes.
Cultural and National Festivities
Flags are inseparable from cultural pride. Celebrate Independence Day or other national holidays with custom flags bearing your favourite designs, historical emblems, or artwork that reflects your values.
Malls, Trade Shows and Exhibitions
Trade booths and exhibition stalls often need visuals that grab attention. A custom-printed flag displayed from a tall pole acts as an effective beacon that helps people locate your stall from across the venue. Similarly, a flag screaming the word ‘SALE’ in side your retail store is guaranteed to grab attention.
Outdoor Advertising Solutions
Flags are a great option for roadside advertising and banners. Lightweight designs that flutter in the breeze draw attention to local shops, sponsors of events, or even real estate sites.
Print Flags of Different Nations
You can easily find the flag of India at any flag shop or stationery store. But what if you need a flag from a different country—for instance, if international visitors come to your corporate office and you want to greet them by displaying their flag?
Make your international visitors feel important and welcome by hoisting the colours of their country.
How are Flags Manufactured at Orchid Digitals?
Creating vibrant, weather-resistant flags that command everybody’s attention requires precision, high-quality materials, and state-of-the-art printing technology. At Orchid Digitals, we pride ourselves on delivering beautiful photo-printed flags for your business, event, or personal needs. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you understand how we process personalised flag printing—from design to delivery.
High-Resolution Printing on Fabric
At the heart of our flag printing process are our wide-format digital printers, including industry-leading brands like Roland and Mimaki. These machines excel at reproducing images in ultra-high resolution, ensuring your flag design is sharp, vibrant, and rich with detail.
We print on lightweight fabric designed specifically for outdoor visibility. This ensures that your flag will easily furl and billow in the wind, even in the lightest breeze—just like a flag should!
Preparing Your Flag Artwork
Designing a flag isn’t just about the visual look. It’s also about ensuring technical perfection for large-format printing. Once you share your flag design or artwork:
- We scale the design to the desired dimensions (most popular sizes include 2×3 feet, 3×4 feet, or even larger).
- We conduct a resolution check of the image/artwork to confirm your design is crisp and sharp.
- If required, we can fine-tune the colours to add vibrancy and ensure a striking final product.
Don’t worry! Any tweaks to your artwork are only made with your consultation and approval.
How are Two-sided Flags Created at Orchid Digitals?
A digitally printed flag can be either single-sided or double-sided. If you print on one side of the mesh fabric, the image is automatically reproduced on the reverse side. But the text on the other side will be a mirror of the front. Mesh fabric works well for asymmetrical images that appear the same from both the front and the back.
However, to create two-sided flags from regular images, you need to print two copies and have them stitched back to back.
Stitched edges make sense as they prevent the material from fraying. You can also get a loop stitched on the side to run in the hoisting rope. We can even do this stitching for you.
Printing Your Flag on Our Wide-Format Machines
After the artwork preparation is completed, we move on to the printing process. Here’s what happens:
- Rolls of cloth, typically ranging from 3 feet to 5 feet in width, are loaded into our wide-format printers. These dimensions allow us to create large flags without joints or seams.
- The machines use weather-proof inks, such as UV inks or eco-solvent inks, to reproduce your design with crisp clarity and vibrant colours.
- With a touch of a button, the printer reproduces your design onto the fabric with crystal-clear resolution and vibrant hues.
In a matter of minutes, your flag design is transformed into a tangible piece ready for stitching!
Finishing the Flag: Edge Stitching and Hoisting Pocket Creation
Flag printing is only half the job—it’s the finishing touches that turn a printed fabric into a usable flag. Here’s how we do it:
- Edge Stitching: We stitch three sides of the flag to prevent fraying and ensure durability.
- Hoisting Pocket: The left side of the flag is stitched into a one-inch-wide hollow pocket. This pocket allows for:
- Inserting a hoisting rope to raise the flag up a flagpole.
- Sliding in a handheld rod or pipe, enabling you to wave the flag high in celebrations or events.
Ready for Delivery
After stitching, your custom flag is now ready to fly high and get noticed! Whether you’re celebrating a special event, showcasing your brand, or cheering for your favourite team, our custom flags are built to impress.
Additionally, although this product is manufactured right here in Pune, Maharashtra, we offer shipping across India.
Please share your detailed shipping address, including the PIN code, and we will deliver it to you via our logistics partner or courier company.
Here Are Some Artwork Guidelines That You Should Follow While Designing Your Personalised Flags
Designing artwork for a customised flag order may seem daunting, but with a few simple guidelines, you can ensure that the final product looks absolutely stunning and perfectly tailored to your needs. At Orchid Digitals, we believe in collaborating closely with our clients to deliver superior results. So, whether it’s your sports team logo, school house emblem, college flag, or rally slogan, these handy tips will steer your design in the right direction!
Choosing the Right File Formats
Your artwork file is the foundation of the flag design—and quality matters! Make sure to send your designs in high-resolution file formats like JPG, PNG, PDF, CDR, or AI.
These formats ensure crisp and sharp prints that won’t appear blurry or pixelated. Poor-quality files can result in uneven designs, and we want to help you avoid that altogether.
Resolution: Crisp and Clean
The artwork you provide should be high resolution because low-resolution or pixelated designs often lead to unsatisfactory print output. The general rule?
More detail = better results. It’s always worth double-checking the clarity of your file or reaching out to us for guidance on resolution.
Placement of Readable Content
Design placement on flags requires a bit of finesse. One critical point to remember is not to place any important text or design elements too close to the edges of the flag.
The sides need to be stitched to prevent fraying, and readable content near the edges runs the risk of being cut off during this process.
Keep some space or breathing room to ensure a visually perfect finish, whether it’s your company logo, slogan, or intricate design element.
Quality Checks Before Printing At Orchid Digitals
Here’s the good news: before any flag job reaches the printing machines, our team performs detailed quality checks. We pay close attention to parameters like resolution, colour vibrancy, and sharpness.
If there’s anything we believe can be improved—whether that’s enhancing the brightness of your design or addressing any alignment issues—we’ll reach out for your approval before proceeding.
We’re committed to ensuring you’re completely satisfied with the final output.
Need Help With Layout? We’ve Got You Covered!
If you’re not comfortable designing the entire flag yourself, don’t worry—we make the process incredibly easy. Just share a high-resolution logo file along with your desired flag size, and we’ll take care of the layout for you.
Once we’ve crafted the design, we’ll send it over for your review and approval before proceeding.
At Orchid Digitals, we believe: a little bit of care when creating your artwork leads to a flag you’ll be proud to hoist. Just follow the pointers above, and you’re already ahead! And remember, our expert team is always here to guide you every step of the way!
Simple Software Options for Designing a Custom Flag (Even If You Are Not A Professional Designer)
Here’s a common situation. Many clients will have an idea or maybe a logo, but not the design skills or professional software. Here are some simple, user-friendly software options you can suggest to your clients for creating basic flag designs:
Top Recommendations (Easiest & Most Accessible):
Canva and Adobe Express are basically a beginner’s dream come true when it comes to designing anything, from social media posts to personalised flags! It’s a simple drag-and-drop interface that allows you to play with text, images, shapes, and colours effortlessly. Plus, it’s loaded with pre-designed templates and editing tools that make customisation super easy.
Even better? You don’t need to download anything—it’s an online tool that works straight from your web browser.
Canva (www.canva.com):
- Why it’s good: Extremely popular, very intuitive drag-and-drop interface, designed for non-designers. Runs in a web browser (no installation needed).
- Features: Huge library of fonts, basic shapes, colours, and free stock photos/elements. Easy to upload their own logo or images. Users can set custom dimensions (crucial for flag aspect ratios – e.g., 300cm x 200cm or a 3:2 ratio).
- Output: Can export as high-quality PNG, JPG, or PDF suitable for print (advise them to choose “PDF Print”).
- Cost: Offers a very generous free plan that is sufficient for most basic flag designs. Paid plans offer more assets and features.
- Best For: Combining logos, text, background colours, and simple graphics.
Adobe Express (www.adobe.com/express/):
- Why it’s good: Adobe’s user-friendly design tool, similar in concept to Canva. Web-based and mobile apps are available.
- Features: Offers templates, stock photos, fonts, and easy tools for adding text, images (including logo uploads), and shapes. Allows custom sizing.
- Output: Can export designs as PNG, JPG, or PDF.
- Cost: Has a good free plan. The premium plan offers more assets and features.
- Best For: Users who might be slightly familiar with Adobe products or are looking for a strong Canva alternative.
Familiar Software (Potentially Usable with Guidance):
Microsoft PowerPoint or Google Slides: Now, this one might surprise you, but Microsoft PowerPoint can actually be a great tool for designing flags! If you’re comfortable using PowerPoint for college projects or office presentations, you’ll find it just as easy to use for basic flag designs. You can insert shapes, logos, and text, and change colours with simple clicks.
Microsoft PowerPoint or Google Slides:
- Why it’s good: Most people have access to and basic familiarity with MS Powerpoint.
- How to use this software for making flag designs:
- Set Custom Size: Instruct the client to go to “Design” -> “Slide Size” -> “Custom Slide Size” and set the dimensions to match the desired flag aspect ratio (e.g., width 30 inches, height 20 inches for a 3:2 ratio flag – use inches or cm). This step is critical.
- Design: They can easily add text boxes, insert their logos/images, add shapes, and change background colours.
- Output: They can export the slide as a high-resolution PDF (“File” -> “Export” -> “Create PDF/XPS Document” or “File” -> “Download” -> “PDF Document”). Alternatively, they can save the slide as a high-resolution PNG/JPG image (check export options for quality/resolution settings).
- Cost: PowerPoint requires a Microsoft 365 subscription (common in offices/schools); Google Slides is a silmilar tool like PowerPoint and is free with a Google account.
- Best for: Clients who are resistant to learning a new tool and already have a reasonable understanding of presentation software.
A Variant For Events – Teardrop Flags
Sports events and rallies often feature curved flags with an arch, known as teardrop flags. These are generally spotted on the sidelines of the track and announce the event’s name and display the branding of the organisers and advertisers.
They are two essential benefits over the conventional flag –
- Even in the absence of wind, these flags remain taut and do their job of advertising pretty well. That’s unlike the conventional flag, which does not really achieve its appeal unless they are billowing in the wind.
- Owing to their unconventional shape and form factor, they are more likely to capture attention.
Teardrop flags, as a product, are still in development at Orchid Digitals. Once ready, you’ll find more information about them here.

Flag Printing – Client Stories
FUJITSU Corporation is one of our clients who needed flags printed. They were receiving high-level dignitaries from the UK. The welcome ceremony included the hoisting of the company flag by the guests.
The people at Fujitsu needed custom flag printing with their logo/image showing on both sides. Further, the flags needed to be double-stitched, hoisted from fifteen-foot poles and sunk in the garden at their corporate site in Talawde. The poles also had pulleys welded on the top for running the rope that would hoist the flags. And oh yeah, this entire project had to be completed in less than a day.
