From Industry Leader in 355nm Industrial 3D Printing Resins to the Rise of 405nm Materials — Greatsimple Technology Co., Ltd Reaches Annual Revenue of Over 100 Million CNY

Panda3dp.com Guide: Greatsimple Technology Co., Ltd, a leading manufacturer of SLA industrial-grade 3D printing photopolymer resins for 355nm applications, has traditionally served B2B clients. In recent years, the company has ventured into consumer- and engineering-grade 3D printing materials, such as 405nm resins and FDM filaments, while expanding into e-commerce to directly reach end-users. As the 355nm resin market stagnates, 405nm and 385nm materials are emerging as powerful growth drivers.

Company Overview
Greatsimple Technology Co., Ltd Technology Co., Ltd. (hereafter referred to as “Greatsimple Technology Co., Ltd”), located in China’s Pearl River Delta, is a 3D printing materials company. In 2024, its annual revenue exceeded 100 million CNY. Thanks to its prudent management and forward-thinking market strategies, the company has stood out in a fiercely competitive landscape.

In July 2025, Panda3dp.com interviewed Greatsimple Technology Co., Ltd’s CEO, Mr. Cai Yong, to gain insights into the company’s latest strategies and market positioning within the 3D printing materials sector. During the interview, Mr. Cai emphasized the firm’s development strategies in the consumer market and shared his perspective on the future trajectory of 3D printing materials.

Years of Industry Dedication: From Behind-the-Scenes to Center Stage
Greatsimple Technology Co., Ltd did not become an industry leader overnight. It has been a diligent and longstanding contributor to the 3D printing materials field. The company began by focusing on the production and sale of 355nm SLA industrial-grade photopolymer resins. Through its unwavering commitment to product quality and customer service, it gradually earned a solid reputation and established a strong network in the industry. Panda3dp.com has visited numerous prototype factories using Dajian’s materials. As competition intensified, although shipment volumes of 355nm materials increased, prices fell. At the same time, the rise of the consumer market pushed the company to step out of its comfort zone and seek new paths to growth.

From Industrial to Consumer Markets: A Strategic Shift
Mr. Cai Yong explained that the company initially concentrated its efforts on the industrial sector. However, with the emergence of consumer 3D printer brands like TuoZhu and the rapid expansion of the consumer market, Dajian has redirected a significant portion of its focus to consumer-grade materials.

“In the past, 100% of our energy was devoted to the industrial segment. Now, around 50% is focused on consumer-grade and FDM filament products,” Mr. Cai shared. In response to market dynamics and to foster diversified growth, Dajian has established a robust “iron triangle” of three core product categories:

· 355nm Resin Materials: A mature and competitive market, serving as a stable revenue stream.

· 405nm Resin Materials: Targeting high-end industrial and consumer applications, this segment is rapidly expanding.

· Consumer-grade FDM Filaments: Experiencing fast-paced growth.

Consumer Market: A Landscape of Opportunity and Challenge
Mr. Cai candidly acknowledged that while the consumer 3D printing materials market is growing swiftly, it also presents significant challenges. The FDM filament sector is highly competitive, with aggressive price wars. Consumer customers are price-sensitive, exhibit low brand loyalty, and the distribution channels differ greatly from those of the industrial sector. Nevertheless, Dajian’s deep experience in industrial applications equips it to identify and address niche demands.

Strategies to Overcome Consumer Market Challenges

· Differentiation: Instead of engaging in price wars, the company focuses on improving product quality and offering personalized services to distinguish itself.

· E-Commerce Expansion: By building its own brand and leveraging livestreaming and direct-to-consumer strategies, the company is broadening its digital presence.

· International Expansion: Through platforms like Amazon, Dajian is reaching customers in Europe and North America, extending its global footprint.

Looking Ahead: Staying Focused, Playing to Strengths
“No matter how fiercely others fight price wars, it doesn’t affect us. We just need to seize the material opportunities we see. If we can make a fair profit, that’s enough. We don’t chase loss-leader tactics for publicity,” said Mr. Cai.

Dajian’s strategy moving forward is clear: avoid overextension and stay focused on areas of expertise. Rather than pursuing volume for its own sake, the company will continue to explore niche segments with high profit potential. Future investments will focus on the 385nm resin segment, with plans to develop more specialized engineering materials.
