Knitted Polyester Happy Australia Day Flag

For lasting quality and vibrant colours of the flag, please follow these care guidelines:

1. Cleaning:
   • Gentle Washing: Use a mild detergent to clean your flag, avoiding bleach or harsh chemicals that can cause fading or damage.
   • Machine Wash: If machine washing is necessary, select a gentle cycle with cold water and place the flag in a mesh laundry bag to prevent snagging.
   • Air Drying: Lay the flag flat or hang it to air dry. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can shrink or weaken the fabric.
2. Storage:
   • Proper Storage: Ensure the flag is completely dry before storing it. Keep it in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture damage or mildew.
3. Folding the Australia Day Flag:
   • Lay the flag flat on a clean surface.
   • Fold it lengthwise in half, ensuring the edges align evenly.
   • Fold it again lengthwise, creating a narrow strip.
   • Roll the flag gently from one end to the other for compact storage.
4. Handling:
   • Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep the flag away from sharp edges or abrasive surfaces that may cause snags or tears.
   • Secure Installation: When displaying, ensure the flag is securely fastened to minimise strain on the fabric.
   • Minimise Exposure: Take the flag down during severe weather or overnight to extend its lifespan.
5. Repairs:
   • Minor Repairs: Address small tears or fraying promptly by taking the flag to a professional seamstress.
   • Replacement: If the flag shows significant wear, consider replacing it to maintain its appearance and respect its symbolic importance.

Flying the Australia Day Flag:

• Raising the Flag:
  • Attach the flag securely to the halyard, checking that all clips or loops are fastened properly.
  • Raise the flag briskly to the top of the flagpole and secure it firmly to prevent slippage.
• Displaying the Flag:
  • Always display the flag in a prominent position, ensuring it is not obscured by other objects.
• Weather Conditions:
  • Avoid flying the flag in heavy rain, strong winds, or storms to prevent damage to the fabric and pole.
  • Regularly inspect the flag for signs of wear after extreme weather and clean it if it has been exposed to dirt or debris.

By following these guidelines, your flag will retain its vibrant colours and remain in excellent condition for years to come.
