A printed hand flag is RM3.00 in Malaysia, a complete wind flag kit starts at RM110, and a custom 3 × 5 ft flag on polyester flag fabric is RM26.09. Every flag Tandaku sells is printed by dye-sublimation on polyester, so the colour is inside the fibres and survives sun, rain and folding. Which one you need depends on where it stands: on a pavement, in a crowd's hand, or on a pole.

Wind flags: feather, rectangle and giant
A wind flag — also called a beach flag or feather flag — is a tall printed fabric sail on a flexible pole, planted in a base beside a shop entrance, a car park, a show unit or an event gate. It is the cheapest way to put a brand at head height and above, and the movement catches the eye of passing traffic in a way a static sign does not.
- Feather (RM160) — the tall curved shape. The top edge bends with the pole, so the print is always shown in the same profile.
- Rectangle (RM170) — a squared shape with more usable print area for a logo and a line of text.
- Mini (RM110, about 2 m) — for a shopfront, a counter area or an indoor mall entrance.
- Mini on a water base (RM120, 3 m) — the base is filled with water, which is what keeps a flag upright on a pavement or car park where it cannot be staked.
- Giant (RM220, about 4.5 m) — for highways, big open grounds and petrol stations, where it has to be read from a moving car.
Design for the shape: the print runs vertically, so put the logo high where it is seen over cars and people, and keep text short and large. A single word or a phone number reads; a sentence does not.
Custom flags cut to size
For a flag that flies on a flagpole, hangs from a wall bracket or crosses a hall, print fabric cut to any size instead of a kit:
| Size | Flag fabric 80gsm | Mesh fabric 110gsm |
|---|---|---|
| 2 × 3 ft | RM10.44 | RM12.24 |
| 3 × 5 ft | RM26.09 | RM30.59 |
| 4 × 6 ft | RM41.76 | RM48.96 |
- Flag fabric is the classic light flag cloth. It prints one side and the design shows through the back as a mirror image — right for a logo, wrong for words.
- Mesh fabric has an open knit, so wind passes through; use it where a solid flag would be torn or would pull the pole over.
- Both sides must read? Every fabric prints one face, so order two flags and sew or hang them back to back.
Custom pieces come with heat-cut edges that do not fray, supplied flat. If the flag needs a pole sleeve or brass eyelets, a tailor can add them in minutes.
Hand flags
Hand flags at RM3 each are for rallies, parades, sports days, school and corporate events, and the Merdeka and Malaysia Day season. Order them in quantity: at 100 pieces the price drops 5% automatically.

Keeping flags looking good outdoors
Sublimated polyester does not peel, but every flag left outside day and night eventually fades in the sun and frays at the tip in the wind. Take wind flags in overnight and when a storm is coming, which also protects the pole and base. Roadside flags, like roadside bunting, are regulated by local councils, so check before planting a long row along a public road.
How long flag printing takes
Flags are dye-sublimated and ready in 3 working days: an order confirmed (paid and artwork approved) before 2pm counts that day as day 0 and is ready between 6pm and midnight on working day 3. Express, chosen at checkout, makes it the next working day. Kits ship by courier anywhere in Malaysia, go by Lalamove within the Klang Valley once we confirm they are ready, or can be collected free in Seri Kembangan. For National Day, Malaysia Day or an opening date, allow for courier time on top of the ready date.
