Our Digitally printed Birmingham Flags are manufactured from 115gsm Ministry of Defence approved knitted polyester flag fabric, the highest quality print fabric available for outdoor flag making. What was different about Birmingham was that instead of having a low-paid, unskilled population to rely on, they had a highly skilled (and well paid) workforce with a huge range of skills. Following local government reorganisation in 1974, the Borough of Sutton Coldfield was incorporated into Birmingham and the arms were subsequently amended. Thus, the ermine cross represents Edgbaston and Sutton Coldfield, two very well-off areas of the city.
