Orgalim

Orgalim was formally created in late 1954, therefore pre-dating the official European Union project.

Founding associations came from Austria, Belgium, France, West Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the UK, Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway.

Meetings and informal collaboration between industries had begun in 1948, and although initially created as an informal club without any financial demands, the organisation became increasingly structured and eventually developed a secretariat in the early 1950s.

Various other engineering groups had been created at the same time as the European Coal and Steel Community developed, such as MEFTA and COLIME.
