Silicomfy: Therapeutic footwear for functional foot recovery
With three interchangeable soles, Ccilu puts you in control — choose comfort, correction, or concentrated pressure to match your needs. A separated big toe supports natural alignment, while wrapped protection around the heel and toe enhances stability and protection.
Created to deliver real results, our Stepping Stones Caring sandals have earned praise from customers as “perfect for bunions” and “a big help for plantar fasciitis.”

Creating our SiliComfy Technology
Introducing a new sustainable material made from up-cycled silicon waste! Ccilu began SiliComfy® LAB to provide a solution for the silicon sludge waste. By combining upcycled semiconductor waste with other polymers and integrating arch and shock support technology from Telic®, Telic SiliComfy® was born. Ccilu uses this innovative material throughout its newest line, Stepping Stones Caring.
Silicon chips are integral to many aspects of modern life — from smartphones and televisions to electric vehicles and wind turbines. As demand for these technologies grows, so does the semiconductor industry’s substantial carbon footprint. This presents a paradox: while the industry drives innovation essential to achieving climate goals, its manufacturing processes consume vast amounts of energy and water and generate hazardous waste.
Closing the Loop
Taiwan, home to Ccilu’s headquarters, hosts the world’s largest chipmaker, which alone accounts for nearly 5% of the nation’s electricity consumption (Greenpeace). As semiconductor companies worldwide explore greener gases and seek to reduce water and energy use, innovators like Ccilu are taking a different approach — upcycling hazardous manufacturing waste into sustainable footwear.
Without responsible waste management, these materials pose serious environmental risks, including salt pollution, nitrogen and phosphorus contamination, organic pollutants, and heavy metals. By transforming waste into shoes, Ccilu helps close the loop and reduce the industry’s ecological impact.
Award Winning Design
In 2018, Ccilu won a Red Dot Design Award for its Stepping Stones sandals, utilizing SiliComfy technology.
