    i could be wrong mark but i recon you are after flag material which can be printed onto. i am sure i have samples at work from tradebrigade.com
    but thats a trade service… grafityp "may" do it… maybe an idea to check their site.

    i think you can get away with banner material for things like bunting type flags but at that size it would be fairly heavy. the flag material is a sort of lightweight polyester that can be printed onto. the reazon i thought grafityp is because i have bought canvas and tyvek i think from them in the past.
