LOGO
DESIGN
SYMBOL DESIGN
The symbol is inspired by the diamond crystal structure (triangular pyramid) of silicon (Si) — one of the origins of the CIEGAL® name. The triangle, representing upward energy and prosperity, embodies our aspiration to grow from Japan to the world. The form also evokes the faceted brilliance of a diamond viewed from above, capturing the lustrous quality achieved through precision polishing.
LOGOTYPE DESIGN
The logotype draws from the regular hexagon — an embossing pattern found on polishing pads, and a shape long associated with good fortune in Japanese culture as the tortoiseshell motif. The bold horizontal and vertical strokes convey the smoothness and stability that define precision polishing.
