Technical Specifications
Materials
We offer a wide range of feather flag materials, each of the fabrics have different characteristics and are suitable for different conditions, meaning we will have a material fit for your specific requirements. Our most popular materials include:
Standard Knitted Polyester
Over 90% of flags produced in the UK use this material, Knitted polyester is used both internally and externally. These flags are suitable for mirror image due to our digital print method.
Polymesh
50% more durable than our standard knitted polyester, this is a permeable material that is suitable for all mirror image flags and for medium to long term use.
ECO Knitted Polyester
Produced from 100% recycled materials and meeting the same high quality as our standard knitted polyester. Approximately 2 plastic bottles have been used to make 1sqm of material. We can print vivid colours and crisp designs, making sure your promotional messages and branding stand out. Our Eco Knitted Polyester will provide you with an impressive looking display that is environmentally sustainable.
File Specifications
For optimal results, please follow these guidelines when preparing your artwork files.
Accepted File Formats:
- Adobe Illustrator (.ai)
- Encapsulated PostScript (.eps)
- Portable Document Format (.pdf) - Preferred
- Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg)
For our print purposes, we prefer artwork created in Adobe Illustrator and saved in a PDF format. Vector graphics are ideal as they are easy to scale and produce better print quality.
Resolution Requirements:
- For Raster Images:
- 150 DPI at 100% of the final size
- 300 DPI at 50% of the final size
DPI (Dots Per Inch) measures the detail of an image. Increasing the size of a raster image can lead to blurriness or pixelation, which may not be visible on a computer screen but will show up in the final print.
