3 Types of Lighting LEDs Optimized for Meat, Fresh Fish & Produce, and Delicatessen Food

Our "Color Rendering" and "Presentation" Technology

Food Lighting LED Introduction Video (1 min 52 sec )


The "Color rendering" technology reproduces the true color of food. This is a basic approach to LED color matching that reproduces the color of food when illuminated by sunlight.
Sanken's "presentation" technology contributes even further by bringing out a more vivid, fresh, juicy look to fresh food.

During the 50 years of our LED business continuing since our establishment, we have responded to a wide variety of demands in providing products optimized for various fields including automotive, home appliances, and food.
In this process, we have cultivated our expertize in the area of advanced color management, including production methods that limit the targeted chromaticity range of LEDs while controlling spectrum, chromaticity, and rank mixing.

These technologies are combined to create food lighting LEDS that are packed with our "color rendering" and "presentation" know-how.
We performed color tuning optimized for meat, fresh food & produce, and delicatessen food, to create 3 products that make each food type look more appetizing.

By simply incorporating them into your products, such as lamps for food showcases and refrigerated cases, you can create products that meet the demands of the food industry.
