Functional Paper
The primary functions of paper are display and packaging, but we have evolved and enhanced these to offer a wide range of products with new functionalities.
Specialty Paper
Paper is used in various aspects of daily life and products, enriching people’s lives in numerous ways. While our specialty paper products are used in ways that may often go unnoticed, they contribute to the quality and convenience of everyday living.
Thin Paper
Paper that is thin yet highly opaque or thin but highly transparent—at Nippon Paper Papylia, we are skilled at making both distinct types.

Thin Paper Making
With years of experience in producing thin paper, we have refined the balance between seemingly contradictory qualities: higher opacity versus greater transparency, and suppleness versus strength. Moreover, we are continually pushing these advancements even further.
Multilayer Papers
with Various
Raw
Materials
Our papermaking, which began with the production of traditional Japanese washi paper using native plants such as mitsumata and kozo, has expanded to use a wide variety of raw materials, from wood pulp to synthetic fibers. By layering these materials together, we are able to give the paper a number of functions and characteristics to meet our customers’ needs.
Creping and
Surface Processing
Creping is a technique that involves creating crepe-like wrinkles on the paper’s surface. As for embossing, we use a carved roll to imprint detailed patterns. The process of calendaring adds to the paper’s luster and smoothness. And our distinctive skills guarantee its enhanced value and functionality.
Impregnation and
Coating
Paper becomes stronger through impregnation, which involves soaking it in a resin liquid to fill the voids within. The paper is then coated to provide specific functionality suited to its intended use.
Sustainability
We are a small paper manufacturer in Japan. However, our raw materials are sourced from around the world, and the production activities at our mills carry significant responsibilities for the local communities and the environment. With this in mind, all our employees think globally while acting locally, dedicated to protecting and improving the environment.
About Us
As a member of the Nippon Paper Group, we oversee the specialty paper division, one of the Group’s core businesses. We were established in April 2008 through the integration of Mishima Paper, Nippon Daishowa Paperboard, and Nippon Paper Industries’ synthetic paper operations. Since our inception, we have refined our expertise in thin paper, specialty paper, and functional products, leveraging the unique technologies developed by each of those companies over many years.
