Graphic Printing - 3m","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"ds-tab\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"ds-tab-section\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eWhat stops the back of this flag reading as a faded mirror image is the way it is built: two printed panels with a light-blocking liner sandwiched between them. Each face then holds a bright, correctly-oriented graphic on its own, independent of the other. For an outdoor crowd that gathers on every side of a flag, that is what makes printing both faces worth doing, since the message stays legible from each approach rather than only the front, which is the difference between a flag that works the whole crowd and one that works half of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"ds-tab-section\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe teardrop is the rounded outline, with a curved pole arcing over the top to pull the fabric tight into a raindrop form. That tension is what keeps the graphic open and on show when the air goes still, where a flat rectangular banner would simply hang limp against its pole. The mast is glass fibre, fine glass strands in resin for a light, springy pole, and it is finished with a GRP whip that bends in a gust. The inner pole diameter is 16.8mm across the range, so fittings carry over between flags.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"ds-tab-section\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThere is no weighted base in this version; a steel ground spike does the holding. It drives down into grass or soil and the pole seats onto it, so the earth anchors the flag and nothing heavy has to travel with it. Light to carry means quick to deploy, which matters when a site needs several flags out at once. The trade-off is that a spike has to grip something soft, so on a hard forecourt or a paved pitch the drive-on car base is the right choice instead, swapping the grip of the earth for the weight of a parked vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"ds-tab-section\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe colour is fixed by dye sublimation, a heat process that vaporises the inks and drives them into the polyester until they dye the cloth itself rather than coat the surface. Set in this way, the print stays bright through sun and showers at an outdoor pitch and copes with being rolled up and unrolled after each use without the colour flaking. Every face carries a printed area of 698mm by 2067mm. You supply the artwork, both sides are produced for you, and the flag pitches by hand in about two minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"ds-tab-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhat Ships in Your Pack\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1 x 3m double-sided glass fibre teardrop flag, printed on both faces from your artwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1 x steel ground spike base\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1 x carry bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"ds-tab-infobox\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2 class=\"ds-tab-h2--navy\"\u003eStaking Out a Full Event or Tour?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"ds-tab-note--spaced\"\u003eWe print and supply teardrop flags in volume for event organisers, garden retailers, sports clubs and touring teams across the UK.
