In September 2018, Sanan was said that it will build the first production line for Micro LED wafers and chips in 2019. The Chinese company has also worked closely with Samsung in Micro LED technology development. They signed a prepayment agreement in February 2018, under which Samsung will give Sanan a prepayment of US$ 16.83 million to secure a certain amount of LED chips used for producing displays.
