Description
This flag of the Congo Republic is produced in the United States from nylon fabric, a lightweight and weather-resistant material. The green, yellow, and red design is digitally printed to create vibrant, bold colors. The inks used in printing this flag are fade-resistant, which helps prevent sun damage from outdoor flying.
Our Congolese flags have a durable canvas header and brass grommets for secure hoisting on any outdoor flagpole, such as our popular 6’ tangle-free house-mounted pole.
