The IHA
Preserving Aluminium’s Past for Future Generations

An industrial product born of the technical revolutions of the 19th century, aluminium has gradually become an important part of many areas of our material culture. A precious metal, rare and expensive in the 1850s, it then became cheap and commonplace. An everyday material, it is also used in advanced technology. A material of the future, it is also a material that holds memories, through its varied uses and imprints. Today, it has become part of our heritage, the subject of research and museum exhibitions.

Aluminium and Beyond

IHA has gradually and naturally extended its field of activity to other industrial sectors in France and abroad. It works to preserve, study, and promote industrial heritage as a whole. To strengthen its work and appeal, IHA set up an endowment fund in 2016. Combining sustainability, simplicity, and transparency, the IHA is committed to financing projects carried out or supported by the Institute for the History of Aluminium.

Together, let's preserve the industry's heritage, recognize its importance, and make it accessible to everyone. Whether you are an individual or a company, we invite you to become a part of this initiative.
