Beach Flags

How to choose the right printed beach flag

Beach flags are portable promotional flags designed to display your logo, artwork or brand message. They can be used at trade fairs, events and promotional activities, as well as outside shops, service businesses and anywhere you need a highly visible advertising display that is easy to position.

When choosing a beach flag, start by considering where it will be displayed, how much space is available and the direction from which people will see the design. You can then select the shape, size, single-sided or double-sided option and a suitable base.

Which beach flag should you choose?

Beach flags differ mainly in the shape of the printable area and the options available. The range includes Quill, Feather, Crest, Square and Curved models, so compare not only the sizes but also the shapes to find the best fit for your display location and design.

Different product ranges are also available, including Long Life and Economic options. Available configurations vary by product, so once you know how the flag will be used, compare the options offered for each model.

• decide where the beach flag will be positioned,
• choose a shape that suits the display and your design,
• select the right size,
• decide whether you need a single-sided or double-sided option,
• choose a suitable base for the intended location.

Once you know where the flag will be displayed, compare the products above and choose a beach flag that suits your needs.

Single-sided or double-sided beach flag?

Your choice should primarily depend on how the beach flag will be positioned in relation to its audience. Consider a single-sided option if most people will see the message from one direction, or if the flag will stand by an entrance, wall or particular walkway.

A double-sided beach flag is designed for locations where the message needs to be visible to people on both sides of the display. This can be particularly useful in open spaces, at trade fairs and during events where visitors approach from different directions.

If you already know which option you need, go straight to the relevant product range:

• Standard single-sided feather flags
• Premium single-sided feather flags
• Standard double-sided feather flags
• Premium double-sided feather flags

Which beach flag shape should you choose?

The shape of a beach flag affects the overall appearance of the display and how the artwork is arranged. Quill, Feather, Crest, Square and Curved models all have differently shaped printable areas, so consider both the display location and the design itself when making your choice.

If your design features a large logo or short message, you can base your choice mainly on the visual effect you want to achieve. If the artwork contains more elements, check the template for the relevant product before choosing to make sure the layout works well with that model's shape.

Beach flags with your own logo or artwork

A custom-printed beach flag can feature your company logo, brand colours, campaign artwork, a short promotional message or directional information. It can form part of your regular brand identity or be created for a specific campaign or event.

Your design should remain legible from a distance. Give prominence to the logo and key message, and avoid including too many small details. The artwork should also be adapted to the shape of the selected beach flag model.

Where can beach flags be used?

Beach flags are a portable way to promote your brand in many settings, including:

• trade fairs and industry events,
• events and promotional activities,
• entrances to shops and service businesses,
• stands and service points,
• product display areas,
• outdoor events and field promotions,
• larger branded advertising displays.

Before choosing a beach flag, decide exactly where it will be used. This will help you select the right size, single-sided or double-sided option and base rather than choosing on appearance alone.

How do you choose a base for a beach flag?

The base should suit both the intended location and the type of surface. It is therefore best to select a specific beach flag model first and then check which bases are available for it.

See our range of flag bases and choose an option suited to your planned display.

How do you prepare artwork for a beach flag?

Prepare your artwork for the specific beach flag model and size. Once you have selected a product, download the correct template and create your design according to the requirements for that option.

Before submitting the artwork, check the placement of the logo, text and key graphic elements. Make sure they remain legible once the design has been adapted to the product's shape.

You can also find detailed guidance in the print file preparation specifications.
