EuLA organisation & Structure

EuLA was set up in 1990 by the European members of the International Lime Association (ILA) to provide sector-based representation for the European lime industry. In 2007, EuLA joined the European Industrial Minerals Association (IMA-Europe) as a member. The Secretariat is based in Brussels.

The Structure

The daily functioning of the association is ensured by three strategic bodies:

• the General Assembly of members: the governing body of the association, made up of all members of the Association. 
• the Board of Directors: setting out the long- and short-term strategies of the Association. It comprises 11 Directors, of which one President and two Vice-Presidents. 
• the Bureau: a non-formal body made up of the President and the two Vice-Presidents. It supervises the work of the various Task Forces reporting to the 3 Committees and ensures the smooth coordination of the strategies set out by the Board of Directors.
