EU
Introduced in 1995 by the council of Europe. Originally each member state was to be represented by a star, however it was decided there were too many members and for the original form to remain. The stars are in a circle representing unity but do not touch representing the retention of state autonomy

Product Description
We manufacture and supply the EU flag ready to fly on the top a flagpole in either hand sewn or digitally printed options.
We highly recommend hand sewn national flags as the preferred choice for your flag. Manufactured using Ministry of Defence approved 155gsm woven flag material, this fabric offers the best possible durability and has been used by the Navy and other military branches for many years.
Hand sewn EU national flags are made to MoD & Flag Institute standard patterns by cutting panels of the required colours from a roll of fabric, before being sewn together by our skilled flagmakers to create the official EU pattern. National flag designs with complex details will have a printed panel or badge added to the main field of the flag.
Dye-sublimated EU national flags are created using our state-of-the-art textile print systems and woven polyester flag fabric in our UK manufacturing facility. Chosen for strength and durability, knitted polyester is an ideal choice for anybody looking for a good value national flag finished ready to fly from your flagpole.
The EU national flag is finished by hand with a headband rope and toggle as standard, ready to attach directly to a flagpole. The three exposed sides of the flag are finished with a strong double hem and a triple sewn hem on the fly edge for extra durability.
Other finishes are available, please be sure to select the correct option for you or contact a member of our team for support.
