Traditional flags
Made in Austria

In addition to bunting, flags and the production of advertising materials, we flag makers have also mastered the craft of artistic embroidery for decades. Church and club flags are embroidered and sewn by hand in our in-house workshop. Other traditional products such as standards, mourning ribbons, sashes, honorary or commemorative banners are also lovingly produced with the highest level of expertise.

With appreciation to success

At FAHNENGÄRTNER, appreciative cooperation is our top priority. Our 4 guidelines for cooperation (appreciation, talent orientation, initiative and cooperation) describe our corporate culture, to which we are fully committed.

A common song connects

Music brings joy to many people, makes time seem shorter and connects people without words. We want to show you what we do not only in words and pictures, but also through music and have written a FAHNENGÄRTNER song especially for this purpose.

Our song "Wir hissen die Fahne" is an expression of warmth, being human and the flag as a symbol. This is SIMPLY WE.
