Materials
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.

If you'd prefer to dispose of your old flag at home, national flag protocol advises the flag should be destroyed privately and in a dignified way, such as being cut into small unrecognisable pieces and disposed of with household rubbish.
This design, known as "Tino Rangatiratanga' was recognised in 2009 as the preferred national Maori Flag and it was noted by Cabinet that it will complement the New Zealand Flag.
The national Maori flag was developed by members of a group named Te Kawariki in 1989 and in Feb 1990 the group unveiled the flag at Waitangi.
The symbolic meaning of the flag is as follows:
Te Korekore - potential being (black, top)
Te Whai Ao - coming into being (red, bottom)
Te Ao Marama - the realm of being and light (white, centre)
The koru is symbolic of a curling fern frond, representing the unfolding of new life, hope for the future and the process of renewal.
