American Flags Express Inc. has joined forces with CDN Inc., a prominent product design, engineering and testing company, to pioneer development of a more durable U.S. flag. This innovative flag is specifically engineered to resist UV fading and fiber weakening, ensuring an extended lifespan. CDN Inc. has designed a cutting-edge UV chamber that accelerates the aging process, enabling the creation of flags built to endure not only on Earth but also on the moon and Mars.
Thomas J. D’Amico, President of American Flags Express, shares his personal fascination to this project, stating, "It's an intriguing project that resonates with my longstanding interest in spaceflight." D’Amico underscores the company's dedication to providing customers with top-quality U.S. flags at an affordable price. Flag longevity, especially for our commercial customers, on earth or in space, is critically important. The American flag appearance reflects on corporate image, he emphasizes that durable flags reduce maintenance costs and reduces waste.
When comparing U.S. flags from different manufacturers, distinctions become evident over time. While flags may seem identical when new, American Flags Express distinguishes itself by employing superior fabric, thread, sewing techniques, canvas headers, and grommets. The company is committed to continuous improvement, exemplified by its partnership with CDN Inc.
The groundbreaking UV chamber developed by CDN Inc. plays a crucial role in expediting testing processes. What would traditionally take months of sun exposure can now be simulated in just six days inside the UV chamber, showcasing American Flags Express' commitment to delivering state-of-the-art, long-lasting flags to its valued customers.
In addition to a superior U.S. flag, American Flags Express is also developing a lightweight flagpole that will be easily assembled by astronauts. American Flags Express is dedicated to innovation and meeting the unique needs of customers on earth and beyond.
