Traditional Maritime Flag | Lightweight Fabric | Proudly Made in Australia
This 900mm x 450mm Australian Red Ensign is a classic representation of Australia’s merchant navy heritage, carefully crafted in Australia using lightweight knitted polyester. Designed to fly in even the gentlest breeze, this flag is ideal for recreational vessels, historical displays, maritime institutions, or as a commemorative piece for ANZAC Day and Remembrance events.
The bold red background, combined with the Union Jack and the white stars of the Southern Cross and Commonwealth Star, makes this ensign instantly recognisable as the traditional flag of Australia’s merchant marine.
⚓ A Flag of Historical Significance
The Red Ensign has been flown by Australian merchant ships since federation and was officially recognised under the Navigation Act of 1911. It remains a strong symbol of our national seafaring identity and is often used in naval and veteran commemorations to honour those who served at sea.
