Knitted Polyester Lest We Forget ANZAC Day Flag

To preserve the flag’s vibrant colours and ensure its lasting quality, please follow these care instructions:

1. Cleaning:

   • Gentle Washing: Always wash flags with a mild detergent to prevent fading. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals that could damage the colours.
   • Machine Wash: If machine washing is necessary, select a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a mesh laundry bag to prevent snags.
   • Air Drying: Lay the flag flat or hang it to air dry. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can shrink or damage the fabric.

2. Storage:

   • Proper Storage: The flag should be fully dry before storing. Store the flag in a cool, dry, and safe area to protect it from moisture.

3. Folding the ANZAC Flag:

   • Fold the flag neatly in half lengthwise, ensuring the fabric is smooth and wrinkle-free.
   • Fold the flag into smaller sections, ensuring the fabric is evenly aligned.
   • Keep the folds flat and secure, using care to avoid any creases that could damage the fabric over time.
   • Store the folded flag in a protective bag or box to maintain its condition.

4. Handling:

   • Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep the flag away from sharp objects or rough surfaces that could cause snags or tears.
   • Secure Installation: Make sure the flag is firmly fastened when displayed to avoid unnecessary strain on the fabric.
   • Minimise Exposure: Remove the flag during extreme weather or overnight to preserve its condition.

5. Repairs:

   • Minor Repairs: For small tears or fraying, replace the flag and consider taking the damaged one to a professional seamstress for repairs.
   • Replacement: When the flag shows significant wear, consider purchasing a new one to maintain its appearance during important occasions.

Flying the ANZAC Flag:

• Lower the flag to half-mast at dawn on ANZAC Day to honour the fallen and show respect.
• At 12:00 pm, raise the flag to full-mast to celebrate the courage and enduring spirit of those who served.
• Make sure the flag is securely fastened to withstand strong winds and avoid potential damage.

By following these guidelines, your flag will retain its vibrant colours and stay in excellent condition for many years.
