🧵 Why Flags Require Professional Cleaning

Unlike everyday garments, flags are constantly exposed to:

  • Sunlight & UV damage

  • Dust, pollution & airborne particles

  • Rain, moisture & mildew risk

  • Outdoor debris and staining

  • Repeated hoisting and folding stress

Improper washing can cause:
❌ Colour bleeding
❌ Fabric distortion
❌ Weakened stitching
❌ Shrinkage or tearing

That’s why professional dry cleaning and controlled laundering is essential for maintaining the appearance and longevity of flags.
