Description
This Rwandan flag is constructed in America using nylon, a durable fabric built for outdoor flying. Nylon is a quick-drying material, which helps prevent mildew growth after rain. The blue, yellow, and green stripes and sun symbol are added using digital printing technology for accuracy and vivid, fade-resistant colors.
These flags come equipped with a robust canvas header and brass grommets for straightforward attachment to any standard outdoor flagpole. Choose from a variety of sizes, including 2’ x 3’, 3’ x 5’, 4’ x 6’, 5’ x 8’, and 6’ x 10’.
