Description
Swaziland/Eswatini flag
Swaziland is now known as The Kingdom of Eswatani. Its flag features five coloured bands: from top to bottom – blue, yellow, red, yellow, blue. The blue stands for peace and stability, the red symbolises the past struggles of the country and the yellow represents the country’s mineral resources.
The red band features a black and white shield (symbolising the black and white people of Eswatini living peacefully side-by-side) lying on top of two spears and a staff that has feathers on it. This depiction represents the protection of the country against its enemies.
Fabric choice
Knitted polyester – This is the most common flag fabric. Your flag will be digitally printed onto 115gsm quality knitted polyester.
Handsewn – Giving an extra touch of quality to your flagpole our handsewn flags are meticulously appliqued using 155gsm woven polyester by our team of seamstresses based in the UK. A handsewn flag is an investment so we would recommend adding anti-fray to help prolong the life of your flag. It provides extra protection to the hem to prevent fraying.
Eco-friendly option
Eco-friendly flag – This revolutionary fabric is made from recycled plastic items such as PET bottles and industrial polyester waste which has been melted down into chips, then spun into yarn that is knitted to form a material. It has the same durability, strength and versatility of its knitted polyester equivalent but with a much lower environmental impact. We are the first UK supplier to offer an eco-friendly option rather than the standard polyester flags made from virgin plastic.
Anti-fray
An anti-fray netting can be added to your knitted polyester or handsewn flag to help prolong the life of your flag. It provides extra protection to the hem to prevent fraying.
A handsewn flag is an investment so we would recommend adding anti-fray.
What size flag should I purchase?
We’d recommend opting for a 2 yard flag if your flagpole is 6 metres tall or a 2.5 yard flag if it is 8 metres or taller.
Our flags are finished with a rope and toggle so they are ready to fly as soon as you receive them.
