The United Kingdom Flag:

  • St George’s Cross (Red cross on a white background): Represents England and was first adopted during the 13th century.
  • St Andrew’s Saltire (White diagonal cross on a blue background): Symbolises Scotland and has been part of Scottish heraldry since the 12th century.
  • St Patrick’s Saltire (Red diagonal cross on a white background): Represents Ireland and was added to the design after the Act of Union 1801.

Knitted Polyester Trilobal

Trilobal 135gsm Fabric

Alternatively, choose the Vertical Sleeve for a more refined look, allowing the flag to slide neatly onto poles. Custom pole-fit options are also available to suit unique requirements.



Hem Top and Bottom Left and Right

Each flag is hemmed along the top, bottom, left, and right edges to resist fraying and maintain a crisp, professional appearance. This attention to detail enhances both longevity and presentation.

To maintain the flag’s vibrant colours and ensure long-lasting quality, please adhere to the following care instructions:

  1. Cleaning:
    • Gentle Washing: Clean your flag using a mild detergent to help preserve its vivid colours. Avoid using bleach or strong chemicals that may cause fading.
    • Machine Wash: If using a washing machine, select a delicate cycle with cold water. To avoid snagging, place the flag in a mesh laundry bag.
    • Air Drying: Either hang or lay the flag flat to dry naturally. Avoid tumble dryers, as heat can damage or shrink the fabric.
  2. Storage:
    • Proper Storage: Make sure the flag is completely dry before storing it. Keep it in a cool, dry area away from sunlight and moisture to prevent mould or discolouration.
  3. Folding the United Kingdom Flag:
    • Begin by making sure the flag is clean and completely dry before folding.
    • Lay the flag out flat on a clean surface with the Union Jack side facing upward.
    • Fold the flag lengthwise in half, bringing the bottom edge up to meet the top edge, keeping the design aligned.
    • Fold it lengthwise again, maintaining the straight edges and ensuring the Union Jack remains clearly visible.
    • Starting from the fly end (the side opposite the hoist), fold the flag into neat, even sections—either in rectangles or gentle accordion folds—until you reach the hoist.
    • Make sure the folded flag displays the Union Jack prominently on top for formal presentation.
    • Store the folded flag in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
  4. Handling:
    • Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep away from anything that could snag or tear the fabric.
    • Secure Installation: Fasten the flag properly when in use to prevent stress on the seams.
    • Minimise Exposure: Take the flag down during heavy wind, rain, or overnight to prolong its life.
  5. Repairs:
    • Minor Repairs: Small tears or frays can be repaired by a professional seamstress. Always use a replacement during this time.
    • Replacement: When the flag becomes significantly worn or faded, replace it to maintain a polished and respectful appearance.

Flying the United Kingdom Flag:

  • Raising the Flag:
    • Using the Header with Loops: Secure the reinforced loops at the top of the flag onto the halyard, using sister clips for a secure hold.
    • Using the Vertical Sleeve: Slide the flag onto the pole, aligning the sleeve is properly. Raise the flag by pulling on the halyard until it reaches the top, hanging the flag smoothly and evenly.
    • Raise the flag briskly and smoothly to the top of the flagpole. Do not let the flag touch the ground during this process, as this could be seen as disrespectful.
    • Make sure the flag is displayed fully open, with no creases or folds.
  • Displaying the Flag:
    • When flying the flag, position the Union Jack correctly.
    • If the flag is flown alongside other flags, the Union Jack should be flown in the position of honour (typically to the left of any other flags when viewed from the front).
    • When displayed indoors, the Union Jack should be placed to the left of the observer, with the Union Jack’s uppermost corner closest to the flagpole or wall.
  • Flying the Flag Half-Mast:
    • To fly the flag at half-mast, first raise the flag to the top of the pole and then lower it to the halfway point.

    • If raising or lowering the flag during half-mast, never allow the flag to touch the ground, maintaining its dignity.

    • The flag should be raised back to the top once the occasion of mourning is over.

    • Half-masting is typically done in remembrance of national tragedies, significant losses, or during periods of national mourning.

  • Flag Etiquette During Sunrise and Sunset:
    • The flag should be raised at sunrise and lowered at sunset. If the flag is flown at night, it should be illuminated by a light source to make sure it remains visible and is respected.
    • If the flag is displayed for a full day, make sure it is taken down at sunset. Leaving the flag up overnight without proper lighting is not in line with flag etiquette.
    • The flag should always be lowered slowly and respectfully.
  • Weather Conditions:
    • In adverse weather conditions, such as heavy rain, wind, or snow, it is advisable to lower the flag to protect it from damage. If the flag is flown during strong weather, make sure it is made from weather-resistant materials.
    • During high winds, consider using a flag with reinforced stitching or a flag specifically designed to withstand such conditions.
    • If bad weather is expected for an extended period, take the flag down to preserve its quality.
  • Retirement of the Flag:
    • When the flag becomes damaged, faded, or worn beyond recognition, it should be retired respectfully. The Union Flag is not to be discarded in the trash or treated carelessly.
    • To retire the flag, cut it into small pieces or burn it in a respectful ceremony, maintaining the integrity of the Union Jack throughout the process.
    • Many communities or organisations may offer specific flag disposal ceremonies or services to retire the flag respectfully.

By following these care tips, your flag will stay bold and brilliant for years to come. Caring for your flag is a respectful way to honour its heritage and significance.
