Makalu Design by Paulig
The company, founded in May 1985 by Herbert Ganzert in Frankfurt, created exclusive design carpets and soon became the specialist for customized products. The business administration graduate Alexander Mike Ganzert became the executive manager of MAKALU DESGN in 1991. Eight years later he was joined by Thomas Graf, who became fellow partner in the company in 2002. Since winter 2006 MAKALU DESIGN has complemented the entire range of the PAULIG Group with its exclusive design carpets under the management of Thomas Graf.
