The flag should be handled as gently as possible when being transported to festive events. For this purpose, we recommend practical transport covers and, in wet weather, protective rain covers, which we make according to the size of the flag.
If the flag does get wet, it should not be rolled up, or only for a short time, so that no permanent water marks can occur. To protect the embroidered motifs and prevent permanent creasing, the flag should be hung up as soon as possible.
Each flag should be stored dry, airy, dust-free and hanging. If possible, in a suitably large box, hanging freely downwards. The flag box should be protected from direct sunlight. The slits on the sides allow air to circulate; do not close them airtight under any circumstances.
A piece of PINEWOOD in the flag cabinet is ideally suited as moth protection. If no flag cabinet is available, the flag should also be hung from the pole with 2 or 3 hooks on an interior wall.
The flag should be covered on both sides with a sufficiently large white cloth to protect it from dust and light. Never use a plastic cover for storage, as the fabric cannot breathe in it and would suffocate.
A flag should be brushed out 3 to 4 times a year with a dry clothes brush. This is particularly advisable after marching out if the flag has become damp or for flags made of brilliant velvet.
