Whole design presents a rectangular shape divided in 4 fields - 2 blue and 2 white, and "GRIMSHAW" across the flag in blue and white, depending of the field in which it lays. First field - white shows a plant, second field - blue shows a truck, third field - blue shows a train, and the fourth field - white shows an oil derrick.
