IAQA and Particles Plus Expand Strategic Partnership Through New Eight-Year Extension
The Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA) is pleased to announce an eight-year extension of its sponsorship agreement with Particles Plus, building on the second year of the parties’ original two-year agreement.
With this extension, Particles Plus will continue as IAQA’s exclusive Diamond Sponsor, reinforcing its commitment to supporting the association’s mission, initiatives, and long-term growth.
In addition to its financial support, Particles Plus will provide strategic services and advisory guidance to assist IAQA as it strengthens programs, expands industry engagement, and advances its service to members and the broader indoor air quality community.
“Particles Plus has already proven to be a valued partner to IAQA, and this extension reflects both the strength of our relationship and our shared confidence in the future,” said Stanley Yeskolski, President of IAQA. “As Diamond Sponsor, their continued support, strategic services, and advice will help IAQA grow, better serve our members, and further our mission across the indoor air quality industry.”
“IAQA plays an essential role in supporting professionals who work every day to improve indoor environments,” said Adam Giandomenico, CEO of Particles Plus. “We are proud to extend this partnership for eight more years and to support IAQA not only through sponsorship, but also through strategic collaboration that helps the association strengthen its programs and expand its impact.”
This renewed agreement reflects a shared commitment to advancing indoor air quality knowledge, supporting practitioners, and promoting healthier indoor environments through collaboration, education, and industry leadership. The original commitment began in 2025 and now will continue through 2035.

Ventilation is essential to good indoor air quality. But that strategy depends on an important assumption: the outdoor air entering a building is reasonably clean and understood. In the United States today, that assumption cannot always be taken for granted. Wildfire smoke, industrial emissions, traffic pollution, chemical releases, construction activity, and other outdoor events can affect indoor environments. Some hazards are obvious. Others may be difficult to detect or may not be captured by nearby monitoring. That uncertainty makes indoor air quality control increasingly important. Lessons From 9/11

Wildfire Smoke and Respiratory Protection: Choosing the Right Mask Wildfire smoke can affect communities located far beyond the fire itself. Wind can carry smoke across cities, states, and even national borders, as is happening currently across the Great Lakes and Northeastern US due to Canadian wildfires. The result is poor to hazardous air quality both outdoors and inside buildings. One of the main concerns in wildfire smoke is PM2.5. These particles are extremely small and can travel deep into the respiratory system. Exposure may irritate the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs. It can also worsen asthma, heart disease, and other existing health conditions. When outdoor air quality becomes unhealthy, reducing exposure should be the first priority. Staying indoors, keeping windows closed, using effective air filtration, and avoiding strenuous outdoor activity can all help. When going outside is necessary, wearing the right respiratory protection is important.
