For lasting quality and vibrant colours of the Saint Pierre and Miquelon flag, please follow these care guidelines:
Cleaning:
Gentle Washing: Use a mild detergent to clean the flag and avoid any harsh chemicals, including bleach, which can fade or damage the colours.
Machine Wash: If machine washing is necessary, select a gentle cycle with cold water. To prevent snags, place the flag in a mesh laundry bag.
Air Drying: Lay the flag flat or hang it to air dry. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can shrink or harm the fabric.
Storage:
Proper Storage: Ensure the flag is completely dry before storing it. Keep it in a cool, dry place to protect it from moisture damage.
Folding the Saint Pierre and Miquelon Flag:
Lay the flag flat on a clean, dry surface with the blue background and golden ship facing upwards.
Fold the flag lengthwise once, bringing the bottom edge up to meet the top edge, ensuring the shield and ship remain visible.
Fold it lengthwise again, aligning the edges carefully to create a narrow strip with the shield and ship still on top.
Starting from the hoist side (the side with loops or sleeve), fold the flag in small, even sections, ensuring each fold is neat and consistent.
Continue folding until the flag is compact, ensuring the golden ship and shield are clearly visible on the top layer for easy identification when stored.
Handling:
Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep the flag away from sharp edges or abrasive surfaces that could cause tears or snags.
Secure Installation: Always fasten the flag securely when displayed to avoid undue strain on the fabric.
Minimise Exposure: Take the flag down during harsh weather conditions or overnight to prolong its lifespan.
Repairs:
Minor Repairs: If small tears or fraying occur, consult a professional seamstress to repair the damage.
Replacement: Replace the flag when significant wear becomes evident to maintain its visual appeal for important events.
Flying the Saint Pierre and Miquelon Flag:
Raising the Flag
Ensure the flag is clean, dry, and free from any damage before raising it.
Attach the flag securely to the flagpole using reinforced loops or slide it onto the pole if using a vertical sleeve.
Hoist the flag briskly to the top of the pole as a sign of respect and pride. Avoid letting the flag touch the ground during the process.
Displaying the Flag
Position the flag so that the blue background with the golden ship faces outward, ensuring the design is clearly visible.
If displayed alongside other flags, the Saint Pierre and Miquelon flag should be given prominence, ideally on the highest pole or to the viewer's left when displayed horizontally.
Flying the Flag Half-Mast
To fly the flag at half-mast, first raise it to the top of the pole briefly, then lower it to a position one-third of the way down the pole.
When taking the flag down, raise it back to the top briefly before lowering it completely. This practice symbolises honour and respect during periods of mourning.
Flag Etiquette During Sunrise and Sunset
Raise the flag at sunrise and lower it at sunset unless it is illuminated during the night.
If flying the flag overnight, ensure it is well-lit and treated with the same respect as during the day.
Weather Conditions
Avoid flying the flag during extreme weather conditions, such as heavy rain, strong winds, or storms, to prevent damage.
Bring the flag indoors if adverse weather is expected to preserve its condition and vibrant colours.
Retirement of the Flag
When the flag becomes too worn or damaged for display, it should be retired respectfully.
Dispose of the flag by cutting it into pieces to separate the blue field from the shield and ship design, ensuring it is no longer recognisable as a flag. Alternatively, consider recycling the fabric if possible.
By following these care instructions, your flag will remain vibrant and durable, reflecting the pride and heritage it symbolises. Proper care is a meaningful way to show respect for the history and culture it represents.
