To keep your flag looking vibrant and lasting longer, adhere to these care instructions:

1. Cleaning:
   • Gentle Washing: Use a mild detergent and cold water to clean your flag while preserving its colours and fabric quality. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
   • Machine Wash: If machine washing is necessary, place the flag in a mesh laundry bag and use a delicate cycle with cold water to prevent wear.
   • Air Drying: Lay the flag flat or hang it up to dry naturally. Avoid tumble drying, as excessive heat may shrink or weaken the fabric.
2. Storage:
   • Proper Storage: The flag should be completely dry before storing it to prevent mould or mildew growth. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
3. Folding the South Africa Flag:
   • Place the Flag on a Flat Surface: The flag should be laid out on a clean, dry area with the design facing upwards for proper alignment.
   • First Lengthwise Fold: Bring the bottom edge up to meet the top edge, making sure the colours and emblem remain visible and evenly aligned.
   • Second Lengthwise Fold: Fold it once more along its length, maintaining the integrity of the central design.
   • Shape into a Compact Rectangle: Fold the sides inward until the flag forms a neat rectangular shape, keeping the proportions balanced.
   • Flatten Any Wrinkles: Gently smooth out any creases for a tidy and well-presented appearance.
   • Store Properly: Keep the folded flag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or moisture, to preserve its colours and durability.
4. Handling:
   • Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep the flag away from rough surfaces or sharp edges to prevent snags or tears.
   • Secure Attachment: When displaying, properly fasten it to a pole or mount to allow free movement in the wind.
   • Minimise Harsh Exposure: To extend its lifespan, take the flag down during extreme weather or prolonged sun exposure.
5. Repairs:
   • Minor Fixes: If you notice fraying or loose stitching, use a spare flag while the damaged one is repaired by a professional.
   • Timely Replacement: Over time, wear and tear are inevitable—consider replacing your flag to maintain a fresh, vibrant display.

Flying the South Africa Flag:

• Raising the Flag:
  • Header with Loops: Secure the flag by fastening its reinforced loops to the flagpole with sister clips, attach the flag firmly before hoisting.
  • Vertical Sleeve: Guide the flagpole through the side sleeve, fit snugly to keep the flag upright and properly displayed.
  • Hoist the flag swiftly and steadily as a sign of strength and unity.
  • Ensure it is fully unfurled and free from tangles before securing it.
  • When flying multiple flags, the South African flag should be raised first and lowered last.
• Displaying the Flag:
  • The flag must always be positioned with the black triangle on the hoist side and the red stripe at the top.
  • Indoors, it should be mounted on a wall with the black triangle on the left.
  • When draped over a casket, the black triangle should be at the head, ensuring the flag never touches the ground.
  • If flown alongside other national flags, it must be of equal size and at the same height.
• Flying the Flag at Half-Mast:
  • For mourning, raise the flag to the top before lowering it to a third of the way down.
  • At sunset, return it to full height before lowering it completely.
  • Observe government instructions for official half-mast periods.
• Flag Etiquette at Sunrise and Sunset:
  • The flag should be raised at sunrise and lowered at sunset unless illuminated at night.
  • If flown after dark, ensure it is well-lit and properly displayed.
  • During official ceremonies, standing at attention while the flag is hoisted or lowered is a mark of respect.
• Weather Conditions:
  • Avoid flying the flag in harsh weather conditions such as heavy rain or strong winds to prevent damage.
  • If the flag becomes wet, allow it to dry completely before storing it.
  • Inspect it regularly for wear, replacing it if signs of fraying or fading appear.
• Retirement of the Flag:
  • When a flag is too worn for display, it should be retired respectfully.
  • The preferred method is burning in a dignified manner following local regulations.
  • If burning is not possible, cut the flag into unrecognisable pieces before disposal.
  • A replacement flag should be raised promptly to maintain a display of national pride.

By following these care instructions, your flag will remain a bold and enduring representation of your national pride. Proper maintenance ensures it continues to symbolise unity, heritage, and respect.
