Custom Flags and PMS Colors

Begin the flag-making process by determining how the layout or art will appear on both sides of the custom flag. Flags that are printed using screen or inkjet will cause the ink to seep through the material. As a result, you have the exact same design on both sides of the flag. However, the layout on the opposite side will be in reverse.

You will also come across the terms single and double-faced flags which refers to how the flag will appear when seen on both sides. There are flags that appear identical on both sides while others will feature the reverse on one side.

Double-faced banners are generally identical because these comprise of two similar flags sewn back to back. However, the result is a heavy flag that does not fly well in the wind. The use of more materials also causes the total price to go up. Most experts would not advise you to get this kind.

Instead, they will tell you to get a single-sided flag. Check the image if you like how it looks on both sides.

Single-sided flags, however, will show the reverse on one side. You can fix the problem by eliminating text fully or using only a few words to avoid confusion.

Choose between spot or full color

Also find the best colors and printing mechanism to use when making custom flags. When you show the design to a professional, he will most likely ask you about PMS colors. PMS refers to Pantone Matching System. You can create the best flag designs by mixing and matching the right colors.
