Georges Halais (born August 17, 1893, in Neuvy-sur-Loire), with his company, Georges Halais, incorporated on January 1, 1933, is the inventor of modern lighting with, as its first application, the lighting by light ramps of some 2,000 meters of passageways of the liner Normandie which was, at the time, the largest liner in the world. For the interior decoration of the Normandie, Georges Halais, a specialist in stainless steel, is called upon, who supplies more than 50,000 kg, in very diverse forms: equipment for 300 bathrooms, door handles, metal parts of luxury and luxury apartments.
