HISTORY
Desima was founded in 1984 by Karl-Heinz Schmiedeberg and from the very beginning a synonym for exclusive wallcoverings “Handmade in Germany “. Desima became quickly known worldwide as a result of the high quality of its products, reliability and excellent reputation.

After a failed company succession (2009-2014), Karl-Heinz Schmiedeberg took over his company again at the beginning of 2015. Thanks to successful restructuring in product development, production and corporate organization, Desima has regained its former strength once again being fully prepared for today’s markets. Robin Gördes has been running the company since mid-2015 with the friendly support of Karl-Heinz Schmiedeberg.
