For more than 50 years, NP ROLPIN has helped shape the history of French plywood through a journey driven by innovation, generational know-how, and a deep commitment to its home region. From its origins in the Landes to its international reach, the company embodies the evolution of industrial expertise rooted in Maritime Pine.
FROM LABOUHEYRE TO INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
NP ROLPIN first established its roots in the Landes region in 1970 with the creation of Bois Déroulés Océan by Jacques and Pierre de Muizon. Over the decades, the company has grown into a leading international player, recognised for its expertise in wood processing.
Throughout its history, it has undergone several major transformations: integration into the Saint-Gobain Group, the creation of Rol Pin, and its incorporation into the Smurfit Kappa Group. In 2014, following its acquisition by the Japanese group NANKAI PLYWOOD, NP ROLPIN entered a new phase of development, focusing on international expansion.
EXPERTISE PASSED DOWN THROUGH THE GENERATIONS, A COMMITTED TEAM
NP ROLPIN’s story is deeply linked to its dedicated employees, who have built unrivalled expertise in the manufacture of high-precision wood panels. Their skills, technical know-how, and commitment to their home region have shaped the company into what it is today.
From rotary cutting to support functions, every employee plays a vital role in ensuring consistent quality while remaining true to the company’s founding values. This culture, built on generational know-how and reliability, continues to guide NP ROLPIN in every industrial decision.

BUILDING THE FUTURE, STAYING TRUE TO OUR ROOTS
Deeply rooted in the Landes region, NP ROLPIN is committed to long-term development. Its acquisition by the NANKAI PLYWOOD Group has enabled the company to look beyond its traditional markets, while continuing to uphold the local values that have shaped its identity.
