Why Ensign?
Throughout history, ensigns have been used to send messages, rally beleaguered troops, signal other ships, armies, and peoples. Ensigns represent a group’s courage, pride, and identity. In short, an ensign says who you are, where you are, and what you believe with one single piece of cloth or mark.
We are here to set a new standard. We’re courageous enough to take on the hard challenges and proud to drive change in our industry. This is what being Ensign means to us. Rally with us!
