Knitted Polyester Mongolia Flag

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

1. Cleaning:
   • Gentle Washing: Always wash the flag using a mild detergent to prevent fading. Avoid bleach or any harsh chemicals that may damage the fabric or colours.
   • Machine Wash: If machine washing is necessary, use a gentle cycle with cold water. Place the flag in a mesh laundry bag to prevent any damage or snagging.
   • Air Drying: Lay the flag flat or hang it to air dry. Tumble drying should be avoided, as high heat can shrink or weaken the fabric.
2. Storage:
   • Proper Storage: Ensure the flag is completely dry before storing it. Store the flag in a cool, dry, and safe place to prevent moisture damage or mildew.
3. Folding the Mongolia Flag:
   • Lay the flag flat: Begin by placing the flag on a clean, flat surface to avoid wrinkles or dirt.
   • Fold in half lengthwise: Gently fold the flag along its length, bringing the top edge to meet the bottom edge. Ensure the flag’s design is on the outside.
   • Fold again lengthwise: Fold the flag in half again lengthwise, ensuring both edges align neatly. This will reduce the size of the flag while keeping its design intact.
   • Fold into thirds: Starting from one end, fold the flag into thirds. This method helps to keep the design of the flag visible while keeping it compact and manageable.
   • Final fold: If the flag is still too large, fold it in half one more time until it reaches a size that is convenient for storage or display.
4. Handling:
   • Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep the flag away from sharp objects or rough surfaces that could cause snags, tears, or damage.
   • Secure Installation: Ensure the flag is fastened securely when flying to avoid unnecessary strain on the fabric.
   • Minimise Exposure: Take the flag down during extreme weather or overnight to preserve its integrity and prevent wear.
5. Repairs:
   • Minor Repairs: For small tears or fraying, consider taking the flag to a professional seamstress for repairs. If necessary, replace the flag to maintain its appearance.
   • Replacement: When the flag shows significant signs of wear, replacing it ensures that your flag continues to represent your heritage with pride.

Flying the Mongolia Flag:

• Raising the Flag:
  • Begin by ensuring the flagpole is clean and free from obstructions.
  • If using the Header with Loops, attach the reinforced loops to the flagpole or rope using sister clips for a secure hold.
  • If using the Vertical Sleeve, slide the flag onto the flagpole through the sleeve, ensuring it is aligned properly with the top of the flagpole.
  • When raising the flag, it should be hoisted briskly to the top of the flagpole, ensuring the flag does not touch the ground.
• Displaying the Flag:
  • When displayed horizontally, the blue section of the flag should always be at the centre, with the red stripes at the sides.
  • When flown vertically, position the flag so that the red part with the Soyombo emblem is on the top, ensuring the flag is facing outward for all to see.
  • Make sure the flag is securely fastened to the flagpole to prevent any damage from wind or shifting.
• Flying the Flag Half-Mast:
  • To fly the Mongolia flag at half-mast, raise the flag to the top of the flagpole first, then lower it to the halfway point.
  • This position should be maintained as a sign of respect, mourning, or solemn occasion.
  • When lowering the flag after a period of half-mast, always raise it fully before taking it down.
• Flag Etiquette During Sunrise and Sunset:
  • The Mongolia flag should be raised at sunrise and taken down at sunset.
  • It should not remain flying during the night unless illuminated by a suitable light source.
  • Ensure that the flag is raised with dignity at sunrise and lowered with respect at sunset.
• Weather Conditions:
  • The Mongolia flag should not be flown in extreme weather conditions such as strong winds, heavy rain, or snow, as these can cause damage to the fabric.
  • During storms or high winds, it is advisable to take the flag down to prevent any potential harm.
  • If the flag must be flown in inclement weather, consider using a weather-resistant or reinforced version of the flag to ensure its durability.
• Retirement of the Flag:
  • When the Mongolia flag is worn, torn, or no longer in suitable condition for display, it should be retired respectfully.
  • The appropriate way to retire the flag is to burn it in a dignified manner, or alternatively, it can be given to a local Mongolian community group for ceremonial disposal.
  • Avoid disposing of the flag in regular waste, as it holds significant national and cultural value.

By following these care instructions, your flag will maintain its vibrant colours and pristine condition for years to come. Proper care not only preserves the flag but also honours the pride and heritage it represents.
