Exhibition Flags - Teardrop Banners with a Choice of Bases
Teardrop flags are a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor events, exhibitions and trade shows. The unique shape provides ample room for marketing messages and is designed to make a lasting impression on visitors.
Promotional flags are ideal for sporting events, motorsport events, car showrooms, and petrol stations, as well as exhibitions, trade fairs, and festivals.
Printed Flag Kit With Base:
Our large teardrop flag (also known as a Quill Flag) stands 3.5 m tall when assembled and is supplied with a choice of four heavy-duty flag bases for different applications. The ground spike is ideal for soft surfaces such as grass, compact soil, or sand. The large water base is the most popular option, offering excellent stability and suitability for almost any surface. The drive-on car foot can be used on pavements and forecourts, while the large cross base with weighted ring is best for indoor use on hard, flat surfaces.
Outdoor Exhibition Flags:
When correctly anchored, Teardrop Flags can withstand wind speeds up to 18mph (29km/h), Beaufort scale 4 - a moderate breeze. They are designed to perform reliably in typical UK weather conditions, including moderate wind, rain, and overcast days. For safety and longevity, we recommend disassembling flags during high winds, heavy rain, or storms. Printed flags typically last 6–12 months, depending on usage and care. View our comprehensive Flag Care Guide for maintenance and storage advice.
Portable Carry Bag Included:
Storing and transporting your promotional flag kit is convenient and easy with the supplied carry bag. The multi-pocket carry bag has separate compartments for storing your flagpole pieces and printed flag graphic. It can also accommodate a ground spike if needed, but all other flag bases should be transported separately.
Flexible And Durable Fibreglass Flagpoles:
The GRP (glass reinforced plastic) fibreglass poles are supplied in four sections that push-fit together for easy assembly. Compared to aluminium flagpoles, they are lightweight, flexible, robust and easy to transport. Fibreglass poles flex in the wind, reducing the risk of breakage, and are corrosion- and rust-resistant, making them a low-maintenance event flag.
The printed fabric flag features a reinforced, elasticated pole pocket (in black or white) that slides over the flagpole, and a stitched toggle that loops over a hook near the bottom of the pole to secure the promotional flag in place and keep it tensioned. All graphic edges are hemmed and double-stitched for durability.
Designed, Printed & Manufactured In-House:
Teardrop flag banners are designed, printed, sewn, and finished in-house using 110 gsm recyclable polyester flag-knit. The dye-sublimation printing process infuses water-based inks directly into the fabric weave, producing vibrant, full-colour images that resist fading from sunlight, rain, and wind. The robust flagpole and quick-drying, lightweight knitted fabric maintain their shape (even in wet weather) for a reliable and smooth flight.
Fabric flags can be machine-washed, reused, and fully recycled at the end of life. Replacement graphics are available for rebranding or new campaigns, reducing waste and cost.
Single or Double-Sided Fabric Flags:
You can choose single or double-sided print depending on your display needs. Single-sided flags are made from a single piece of flag knit media with artwork visible on the reverse side with approximately 80-90% show-through.
Double-sided promotional flags are made from two pieces of flag knit polyester sewn together with a light-block lining in the middle to eliminate any show-through. This allows custom designs to be printed on either side.
Where Can Teardrop Flags Be Used?
Thanks to their versatility, event flags are perfect for a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications, including marketing ad flags, as front of business flags, in car showrooms and on forecourts. They are widely used as retail advertising flags, at sporting and charity events, exhibitions and trade shows, as motorsport flags, and even festival flags.
Our flag-knit media is fire-retardant to DIN 4102 Class B1 / DIN EN 13501, making it compliant for indoor exhibition use in the UK and across Europe.
