Nur zuweilen, wenn er einen guten Bekannten oder einen großen Kunden persönlich in der Fabrik herumführte, tauchte der kleine, rundliche, stets grau gekleidete Mann mit diesem in der Tür des Saales auf und sagte mit einer zusammenfassenden Armbewegung: »Det sind nu meine Malersch.« Dann verschwand er wieder.

Only occasionally, when he was personally showing a good acquaintance or a major customer around the factory, would the small, plump man, always dressed in gray, appear with them at the door of the room and, with a summarizing gesture, say: "Now these are my painters." Then he disappeared again.

Mark - "Det sind nu meine Malersch." - I would say he is referring to the draftsmen - those doing the technical drawings/designs.
Now, these are my painters."
