Now Open Small Red Teardrop Flag Kit

The Now Open Small Red Teardrop Flag Kit has everything you need to get set up, including the flag, teardrop pole, carry bag and base. Once assembled, the teardrop kit height is 2.5m, with the flag itself 1850mm tall and 980mm wide at it's greatest width.

For easy transport, the pole can be separated into 3 pieces and put into the included carry bag, so it will easily fit into your car boot.

The teardrop banner is printed on a single layer of knitted polyester, with printing on the front side, and the ink then soaking through to the back. The wording will be visible on the back side in reverse, and colours will show through at a reduced intensity.

We have a number of base options to select from, including the spike to go into the ground, a cross base to hold down with weights, or a tyre base to hold in place under a tyre.

Our stock flags are available in three main fabric types: Knitted Polyester, Woven Polyester, and Fully Sewn. Each fabric offers unique characteristics to suit various environments and purposes. It is important to understand the differences in order to choose the right type of flag for your needs.

Knitted polyester is a lightweight fabric that is suitable for indoor and outdoor use and flies easily in the wind. It is recommended for use in calm to moderate environments, as it will fly even in a slight breeze.

Woven polyester is a heavy-duty linen-look fabric that is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. It is considered to be longer-lasting and more durable than knitted polyester, and has a higher UV resistance, making it suitable for harsher conditions. 

Fully sewn flags are the most prestigious-looking option. They are made from the same woven polyester material as flag bunting, but the design is sewn on rather than printed, giving it a premium look.

It's important to note that flag life will depend on weather conditions including wind, rain, and UV exposure. For tips on maximising the lifespan of your flag, visit our Flag Care page.

Flags are subjected to the elements. Ultra violet rays and high winds cause the breakdown of fibres in flags, particularly the breakdown of the sewn edges at the extremities.

Avoid Strong Winds: bring your flag down when strong winds are forecast, to avoid excessive wear and early damage.

Rest Overnight: flying the flag overnight almost doubles exposure to winds, unless required take flags down at dusk and raise at dawn.

Select the right material: woven polyester fabric is more durable to withstand strong winds. Knitted polyester flies best in light to moderate winds.

Flags must fly freely: ensure flags fly clear of buildings and other objects to avoid wear from rubbing.

Expected Life: flags flown continuously last 3 - 9 months, but can last up to 2 years if brought in at night and out of strong winds.
