In addition to making beautiful custom flags and banners, we take great pride in our abilities to maintain them. Our company has the ability to clean and repair commercial grade flags. Though vintage flags are much to delicate for our industrial grade sewing machines we can retire them honorably.
One of our popular services is flag cleaning. When you’ve invested in a high quality flag you want to make sure it’s taken care of. Often our production team is able to clean commercial grade flags without damaging or discoloring the material. It is easy to ruin a well-kept flag simply by using the wrong process when washing it, so call us to schedule a drop-off time or visit our facility and we will get your commercial grade flags cleaned, folded, and returned to you looking brand new.
If your commercial grade flag is worn and tattered, we offer flag repair services to help bring your flag back to life. If you’ve invested in a high quality flag it’s much easier and economical to repair it than replace it or dispose of it the correct way, more on that in a moment.
Often a flag only needs a good cleaning to restore its original appearance. However, in those cases where some repairs are needed we recommend you get the flag mended as soon as you see signs of wear. Typically the first part of a flag to show wear is the fly end (the outer edge of the flag), where hems or seams have begun to unravel due to stress from the wind. Our team can often mend a damaged commercial grade flag and restore it to near its original condition. Simply call us to schedule a drop off time or bring it to our shop in Medford and we’d be happy to restore it for you.
Eventually flags wear down beyond reasonable repair. Because of this we also offer flag disposal, otherwise known as retiring a flag. You might assume this is an easy process; however when done correctly and legally there is an exact method of retiring a U.S. flag that we follow. If you have a flag, or multiple flags that need to be disposed of please contact us to schedule a drop-off time and we will be able to retire the flags honorably.
If you prefer to not retire your flag and hope to find a new use for it you can talk to our specialists about the numerous ways of donating or recycling used flags. We also utilize used banners to create a huge variety of unique tote bags and other great items. Visit our “Specialty Products” page to learn more.

Yelp Review
"Accent Banner is the place to go. These guys have always come through with the best pricing and quality work for my company. Next time your driving through, take a look at the banners on the light poles. If they are not hanging square and straight, that means that Accent Banner didn't do them"
