A standard is a special form of flag that dates back to ancient times. Originally, the standard was used for field signs, which also signaled assembly points for the troops. In the course of history, the standard adapted to the respective means of transportation (on foot, on horseback, on a wagon), especially in terms of size and weight.
The difference to a conventional flag is its size and the visibility of the symbols. There are different motifs on both sides, which are permanently legible thanks to the special attachment to the flagpole. The standard is additionally attached to a crossbar (bracket), which is also often artistically decorated. It is somewhat smaller and lighter, which makes it easier to carry.
To this day, the standard serves as an identification symbol for official emblems (e.g. state limousines) or is a popular form of club flag. Equestrian clubs prefer this form as it allows them to present their club flag on horseback. But standards are also popular alternatives or additions to club flags for other clubs, such as fire departments, marksmen, music clubs, carnival guilds or carnival clubs.

We offer banners for all traditional and carnival clubs. You can customize the banner to suit your club’s needs (manufacturing method, design, various flagpoles and pole extensions). If you prefer banners without pole extensions, we have the right solution for you as well. Mounted on a brass frame, your symbols and mottos remain visible on both sides at all times.
Variations:
- Banner edging with twisted gold bouillon fringe, a gold cord, a scalloped edge, or a flame-shaped border.
- Mounted using an openwork pole hem (loops) attached to the standard pole or stretched over a metal frame.
- Digital printing or print-and-embroidery combinations for eye-catching and cost-effective designs.

The final production time depends on various factors, in particular the product, the amount of detail required for the embroidery and the current order situation. The estimated production times will be announced during the initial consultation.
Hand-embroidered club flags are among the most elaborate works of art embroidery and therefore require more time than, for example, commemorative ribbons, which can be produced using a combination of digital printing and embroidery.
For an elaborately designed club flag, the production time from order to completion is usually around six months. As both the level of detail and the order situation vary, an individual assessment is required in each case. For smaller or less complex products, the production time is shortened accordingly.
The order is binding once the design has been finalized. Sufficient time should therefore be allowed between the initial consultation and the final order - experience has shown that one to two months is sufficient.
For the initial consultation, it is sufficient if you bring your ideas and wishes with you. Initial ideas for flags, banners or sashes can be helpful. Photos of examples or existing club flags can also help with the joint coordination.
Following the consultation, designs are created based on the wishes and requirements discussed, depending on the manufacturer. These serve as the basis for further coordination and the final selection.
This process applies to all traditional products, including flags, banners, standards, sashes, honorary banners and music stand banners.
Depending on the manufacturer, it may be possible to view products on site.
