Materials

Printed flags are made from knitted polyester, a light fabric which flies well in light winds.

Fully Sewn flags are made from woven polyester (also known as flag bunting), which is thicker and considered more durable than knitted polyester.

This flag design came about from a competition held where the general public sent it designs. Originally it was designed with horizontal stripes, however was considered to be too close to the flag of Tanganyika (as it was in 1962) and so it became a cross. The symbolism of the Jamaican flag has been changed over the years and is now black representing the strength of the people, gold for the wealth of the country and sunshine, and green for the vegetation. Originally, the meaning was 'hardships there are, but the land is green and the sun shineth'.

The design was made official on the 6th August 1962, the original Jamaican Independence Day, with the country having gained independence from the British-protected Federation of the West Indies.
