Poly-Max 3" x 5"
The Poly-Max™
3" x 5" is our most popular US flag for business.
At American Flags Express we want you to get the right flag for your need.

The chart below will help you buy the correct US flag for your need. If you're purchasing for a business or fine home, we suggest our BEST SERIES for best look and lowest maintenance. For businesses, the Poly-Max™ is an excellent investment. The Poly-Max™ is also my personal favorite due to its long life, bright color and natural cotton look although it is made of Polyester.

Applica-tions:
Poly-Max™ is recog-nized as the most durable flag fabric. It's ideal for industry, bus-iness,  hotels, restaur-ants where a durable flag reduces maint-enance costs. Truly an all-weather flag.
Endura-Tex™ is ideal for industry, bus-iness,  hotels, restaur-ants where a durable flag reduces main-tenance costs. Some people prefer the natural matt finish of cotton over shiny fabrics.
Endura-Nylon™ is also ideal for industry, bus-iness,  hotels, restaur-ants where a durable flag reduces maint-enance costs.
Very good for resi-dential or com-munity use for all summer long.
Very nice flag for home or busi-ness. At pole dis-tance you cannot tell that this is not a sewn flag.
Occa-sional resi-dential, or com-munity use. Great when you need a large number of flags that will only be used on special occa-sions.
Oc-casional resi-dential, or com-munity use for holidays or festival display.
