Philly Roots
MetFlag is a part of D. C. Humphrys, a textile company operating within the Philadelphia city limits since 1874. Originally sewing covers to conestoga wagons, Humphrys also produced horse blankets, car tents, drop cloths, and a variety of other textiles. Starting in 1949, we've been dedicated to the production of high-quality flags & banners under the Metropolitan Flag & Banner name.
Hand Craftsmanship
Our staff started by making flags the same way Betsy Ross made the first American Flag here in Philadelphia -- by stitching each shape and color onto a solid background. This process, called Appliqué, is a service that we and just a handful of other flag makers in the United States still offer. While most of our flags and banners are now digitally printed, this high level of craftsmanship is something customers will find in all of our work.
We Are the Manufacturer
Most of our competitors in this industry either resell our work, or import mass-produced alternatives from overseas. We are committed to producing quality products locally, while because of our size we can still match the speed and variety of selections you would expect from a large reseller. This dedication to local production has lead to MetFlag's reputation for producing superior products on-time and on-budget, and it's the reason for our long list of Philly clients.
