The flag of Cambé, designed by the architect Evertone Sola, was chosen in a
1967 contest to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the municipality's
incorporation. It was formally adopted by law no. 26 of 3 October 1967. It
is described as two stripes [green on a white field] symbolizing the
developmental activities of the region in parallel with the principal
resource, coffee, represented by a stylized coffee bean in its red color
phase. The vertical direction of the stripes suggests the ascent of the
municipality. The white field is a sign of the climate of peace and union
that is essential to progress.
