Knitted Polyester Orange NAIDOC Flag in Portrait

To help maintain the flag’s vibrant colours and overall quality, please follow these care instructions:

1. Cleaning:

   • Gentle Washing: Clean the flag using a mild detergent to help preserve the colours. Do not use bleach or strong chemicals that may cause fading.
   • Machine Wash: If machine washing is necessary, select a gentle cycle with cold water. Placing the flag inside a mesh laundry bag can help protect it from damage.
   • Air Drying: Allow the flag to dry naturally by laying it flat or hanging it. Avoid using a tumble dryer, as heat can weaken or shrink the fabric.

2. Storage:

   • Proper Storage: Only store the flag once it is completely dry. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from moisture or direct sunlight to prevent mildew or fading.

3. Folding the NAIDOC Flag:

   • Fold the flag in half lengthwise with the design facing outward.
   • Continue folding lengthwise until it is a narrow strip.
   • Starting from the end, fold into a neat rectangle or roll gently for compact storage.
   • Avoid creasing over key design elements to preserve the artwork.

4. Handling:

   • Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep away from rough edges or sharp surfaces that may cause snags.
   • Secure Installation: Attach the flag properly during display to prevent stress on the seams or fabric.
   • Minimise Exposure: For longevity, bring the flag indoors overnight or during harsh weather conditions.

5. Repairs:

   • Minor Repairs: If small rips appear, set the flag aside for professional repair and use a backup if needed.
   • Replacement: Replace your flag when it shows clear signs of wear to maintain a respectful and presentable appearance.

Flying the NAIDOC Flag:

• Display the NAIDOC flag during NAIDOC Week or other culturally significant occasions.
• Position the flag with respect, and if flown with other flags, ensure it is given appropriate prominence.
• When flying multiple flags, raise and lower them at the same time, treating all with equal dignity.

By following these guidelines, your flag will retain its vibrant colours and remain in top condition for many years. Taking care of your flag is not just about preservation but also about honouring the pride and heritage it represents.
