The flag made using British Ministry of Defence approved fabric UK/SC/4767. Manufactured in UK by one of the oldest local factories, 155 g/sqm MOD approved woven flag material is by far the most durable flag fabric on the market. Apart from its outstanding durability, MoD approved woven fabric has a pleasant natural feel and non-shiny wool like appearance. The MoD approved flag fabric is treated for UV resistance and would fade much slower than natural fibres or non UV treated artificial flag fabrics. White woven flag fabric panels are professionally dyed using eco ink powder (pigment) sublimation technique on both sides. Hence, dye penetrates deep within fabric fibres rather than is spread on the surface. As per digital printing on polyester fabrics. The dyed flag panel is sewn around multiple times using UK 'COATS' manufactured bonded nylon thread. The latter has superior abrasion resistance compared to generic cotton or core spun threads.

Union Jack flag is fitted with rope & toggle fixings for easy hoisting on the traditional flagpoles.

It is hard giving an exact estimate on how long the dyed MoD approved Union Jack should last. The general rule however is the properly manufactured flag should outlast the inherent colour fading appearing due to natural UV radiation and air pollution. Please note a flag left flying in a heavy storm for a longer time would obviously last less than expected.
