Flags

For the care and maintenance of flag and flag accessories, it is important to regularly check for wear and damage, especially after strong winds or weather events. Cleaning and, if necessary, the timely replacement of parts such as strapping bands or flag weights help to ensure the longevity and optimum presentation of the flags.
A variety of accessories are available for flags and bunting to optimize their presentation and increase their durability. These include flag weights and straps for stable attachment to the pole, various types of flagpoles with or without end bulbs in materials such as aluminum or ash for an attractive display, and crossbars in different lengths to support banner flags. These accessories allow for a customizable and effective presentation of flags and banners in different environments and applications. Please contact us for further accessory requests.
The strapping band, made from robust webbing material, is used to securely fasten the flag to the pole. It ensures a firm hold and prevents the flag from slipping or twisting in different weather conditions.

Flagpoles

Various accessory options are available for flagpoles to improve functionality, aesthetics and longevity. These include top bulbs and top mushrooms in colors such as gold, silver, black and red, which decorate and protect the pole top.
The 360° rotating extension arm allows the flag to move freely and effectively in the wind, maximizing the visibility and impact of the flag. This flexibility ensures that the flag is always optimally presented, regardless of the wind direction, and minimizes the risk of tangles.
All variants of the aluminum flagpoles with extension arm are specially designed for the "portrait flag" flag type. This suitability makes them ideal for advertising purposes and events where attention needs to be generated.
There are several variants of aluminum flagpoles with extension arm, including STANDARD, COMFORT, PREMIUM and ECONOMY RITTER. Each variant offers different functions and equipment, from simple to high-quality versions with internal rope guide, crank mechanism and different pole lengths.
When purchasing an aluminum flagpole with extension arm, you should consider the intended use, the required pole length, the desired functionality (e.g. internal cable guide, crank mechanism), the type of extension arm and the suitability for the desired flag type. The quality of the material is also important to ensure durability and resistance to weathering.
Flagpoles with an extension arm allow the flag to be permanently displayed in full, as the extension arm keeps the flag visible even when there is no wind. Poles without an extension arm, on the other hand, rely on the wind to unfurl the flag. The choice depends on the specific requirements for the flag presentation and the site conditions.
In most versions of the aluminum flagpole without a boom arm, the flag is hoisted using a polyester rope or, in the case of the HISS EXTRA STRONG version, a steel cable with a PVC sheath. The hoisting devices are designed to allow easy and safe handling, regardless of the type of flag.
The main difference between top bulbs and top mushrooms lies in their design and aesthetic effect. Top bulbs, available in colors such as gold or silver, offer a classic and elegant look that decoratively accentuates the top of a flagpole. They are typically round in shape and resemble an onion, which gives them their name. Top mushrooms, on the other hand, have a flatter, mushroom shape and are available in colors such as black or red, giving them a more modern look. Both serve as a finish and protection for the flagpole, with the choice often depending on personal preference or the desired match with the flag or pole design.
The choice of color for top bulbs and top mushrooms should match the color scheme of the flag, the company's image or aesthetic preferences. Gold and silver offer a classic and elegant option, while black and red are modern alternatives that are suitable for a wide range of designs and applications.
Yes, top bulbs and top mushrooms are designed to be easily attached to the top of the flagpole. Their installation usually requires no special tools and can be done by one person, making them a practical solution for pole decoration.
Yes, top bulbs and top mushrooms on flagpoles are designed to be easily replaced. This makes it possible to update the look of the flagpole or replace damaged elements without much effort. The modular nature of these accessories ensures that they can be attached or removed in simple steps, providing a flexible and practical solution for flagpole maintenance and customization.

Beachflags and sailing flags

The suitability of a Beachflags variant or size depends on the intended use and environment. XS and S sizes are ideal for indoor events or limited outdoor areas where subtle but effective advertising is required. M and L sizes, on the other hand, maximize visibility at outdoor events or in spacious indoor areas.

Dropflags are particularly appealing for trade fairs and exhibitions due to their teardrop-shaped appearance and compact size, while poleflags impress with their traditional rectangular shape and flexibility in all contexts.

Beachflags and sail flags are specially designed for quick deployment. Thanks to the simple set-up and the premium bag, you can set up and take down your Beachflags and sail flags in no time at all.
Absolutely, all our ground mounts can be used universally and fit all pole sizes and sail flag shapes. This offers maximum flexibility when setting up your flags, no matter where you want to use them.
The optimum ground fixing for your Beachflags depends on the ground and the conditions of use. Ground screws or ground spikes are ideal for soft ground such as sand or earth, as they provide a deep hold. On hard surfaces such as concrete, ground plates or ground crosses with different weights are suitable for a stable stand even in windy conditions. Wall brackets are ideal for vertical surfaces and are available in various angles for flexible installation. Always consider local wind conditions and choose the mounting that best suits your requirements to maximize the safety and visibility of your Beachflags.
Wall mounts allow beach and sail flags to be mounted directly on building walls or facades. They are designed to provide a secure hold while allowing the flag to swing freely for maximum visibility and movement in the wind.

Advertising banners and banners

Roll-ups

When cleaning roll-up systems, we recommend carefully wiping the printed surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid the use of chemical cleaning agents in order to maintain the quality of the print. For heavier soiling, contact the manufacturer for specific care instructions.
Roll-up systems have been developed primarily for indoor use, so that both the quality of the display and the durability of the print are optimal. For outdoor use, these systems should only be set up very rarely, if at all, or for short periods and only in wind-protected and covered areas in order to minimize possible damage. If required or if permanent outdoor use is desired, specially designed models are available.
Roll-up systems are ideal for a variety of uses, including as information and advertising media at trade fairs, conferences and events, as signage in large facilities such as shopping centers and airports, or as part of the interior design in stores, offices and waiting areas. Their flexibility and ease of use make them an indispensable tool for effective visual communication in almost any context.

Decorative banner

Light banners make your advertising messages stand out thanks to stylish LED lighting. The combination of customized advertising print and backlighting ensures a high-quality presentation and increases the visibility of your message, especially in poorly lit or dark environments.
Illuminated banners are ideal for indoor applications such as exhibition stands, retail outlets, corporate lobbies, events and anywhere you want to present your brand or message effectively, even in poor lighting conditions. The LED lighting provides uniform and attractive illumination that attracts attention.
Thanks to the rubber lip assembly, changing the motif on illuminated banners is extremely easy and can be done without tools. This allows you to update your advertising messages quickly and easily without additional costs for specialist staff.
Single-sided printing is best when the illuminated banner is placed against a wall or in a corner where only one side is visible. Double-sided printing is ideal if the banner is free-standing in the room or should be visible from both sides, e.g. in the middle of a room or as part of an open room design. This maximizes the visibility of your advertising from different viewing directions.
myMAGO is specially designed for the POS, as it does not require any additional support and attracts attention directly at the point of sale thanks to its stable construction. It is also cheaper than other systems such as the roll-up and offers an efficient advertising solution thanks to its quick and tool-free assembly.

Decorative banners are available in many different sizes – from small formats for interiors to large-scale banners for facades, events or advertising purposes. The available sizes depend on the area of application, material and type of design. Individual special sizes are usually also possible. Common standard widths: 60 cm, 80 cm, 100 cm and 120 cm

This makes it ideal for regular use or when vests are exposed to frequent wear and tear. Polytrans, at 110 g/m², offers very good printability and good durability for outdoor use, making it the first choice for occasional use, such as at events or short-term activities.
