Our flagship product, "San (Sun) Excel Art (8K Printing)," is a unique ultra-high-definition printing technology developed by Sanm Color for fine art printing. Despite being a four-color printing process, it achieves overwhelming detail and vibrancy that cannot be obtained with conventional offset printing, perfectly reproducing the inherent charm of the images. It is particularly popular for printed materials such as exhibition catalogs and photo books, where beauty and reproducibility of the artwork are essential. The typical screen line count for standard offset printing is 175 lpi. In comparison, even conventional high-definition printing is considered to be around 280 lpi, while San Excel Art achieves a fineness equivalent to 1000 lpi. For this reason, San Excel Art is affectionately known by the nickname "1000 Lines." It prints with such fine dots that are invisible to the naked eye, allowing for precise reproduction of details that cannot be captured in standard printing. 【Features】 ■ Capable of detailed expression in fine details ■ Well-suited for printing that requires high color saturation ■ Our proprietary technology is trademarked

basic information
With a typical dot size, the overlapping area between dots increases, causing the colors to mix. San Excel Art is characterized by its ability to apply ink finely on microscopic dots, making it less likely for colors to mix or dots to collapse. The combination of high density, which provides a wide dynamic range, and the richness of colors allows for expressions that possess a sense of three-dimensionality and detail not achievable with standard printing.
