The main colours of the shield - blue, red and silver - refer to the fundamental aspects of the life of two eminent caborrojeños; Don Nicolás Ramírez de Arellano and Dr. Ramón Emeterio Betances. These three colours are latent as much in the coat of arms of the Ramírez de Arellano lineage as in the symbols of the ideals of Betances.
