産 combines 产 (a simplified form related to life or birth) with 生 (life, birth), reinforcing the idea of giving birth or producing. The exact historical development of the 产 component is uncertain, but the overall semantic structure is clear.
The top 产 looks like a shelter or a standing figure, and inside is 生 (life). Picture a shelter where new life is born or products are made: 産 is about bringing something into existence.
For サン, imagine the sun (サン) shining on a field where crops are produced: sun -> サン, and the field yields a rich harvest.
