The story behind the SILEX® X-design
The SILEX® “x” with its red center represents a wood fire and symbolizes the control over the risks of fire.
It is a metaphor of how to take advantage of the know-how that transforms the bush-fire a conflict may represent into an opportunity or a controlled outcome.
The X is the last letter of SILEX®. It symbolizes the end point of a job well done.
The X’s arms are clean, precise and powerful. In the center, they hold its fiery heart.
The heart of the X represents fire, violence, conflict… the gist of what lawyers are trained to mitigate.
