Our history

The Desmet and Ooigem families have been inseparably connected with each other since 1820. What once started as a traditional village mission, later developed into a farrier business. Since 1880, the enterprise focused on the construction of innovative agricultural machinery. Later on, the production of machines for industrialised flax-growing proved to be the ideal springboard for specialising in the manufacture of customised machines for numerous industrial sectors.

 

In 1950, Desmet Engineering moved to its present site at the Wielsbeeksestraat. Here, Arnould Desmet handed over the baton to his son Stefaan, who took over from 1998. With the support of sons Olivier and Vincent, Desmet Engineering has in the 21st century become a synonym for a partner that also excels in the distribution of industrial parts, turning and milling work and additional qualitative services.
