Last Remaining Founding Partner of Three H Passes Away at 89

Heinz Dittmann, the last remaining founding partner of Three H Office Furniture Systems, passed away on Sunday, July 3 at age 89

Following World War II, and with several years of furniture experience as a cabinet
maker behind him, Heinz Dittmann emigrated to Toronto, Canada with entrepreneurial aspirations. Eventually he and two partners, Helmer Pedersen and Helmut Moeltner founded Three H in 1973 in New Liskeard, Ontario.

Heinz led the development of Three H as a unique made-to-order laminate furniture company that ultimately spanned the North American marketplace. Three H has become a leading presence in the design and manufacture of mid-market office case good solutions as a result of his early vision for craft-oriented solutions.

The Dittmann family remains committed to the vision of Heinz that continues to inspire the company with award-winning and design-savvy product lines. His legacy is evident in the growth and success of the company, and a strong and vibrant community of New Liskeard.

Three H is still family owned and operated with Heinz’s son, Roy Dittmann in the role of President, Brian Conlin (son-in-law) COO, Mark Conlin (grandson) VP Service and Operations, and Natasha Dittmann (granddaughter) Customer Service Representative. Heinz is also survived by his wife, Gerda, their son Karl and three daughters: Beate, Barbel and Christine.
