The Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST) is proud to announce a 10-year extension of its Alliance for Excellence partnership with Particles Plus, continuing their relationship through 2035.

Particles Plus will continue its role as the founding member of the IEST Alliance for Excellence — a distinction that reflects the depth of the company’s investment in IEST’s mission and its confidence in the association’s future. As an Alliance for Excellence partner, Particles Plus’s contribution directly supports IEST’s educational offerings, its work across the contamination control field, and its continued leadership in global standards development.

In addition to its Alliance for Excellence partnership, Particles Plus is an IEST Corporate Plus Member and supports the organization through Platinum Sponsorship of both EDUCON and ESTECH conferences and participation as an ESTECH exhibitor.  They are also a member of the U.S. TAG to ISO/TC 209, which contributes to the development of international standards for cleanrooms and associated controlled environments.

“Particles Plus has shown real commitment to IEST’s mission to support education, technical advancement, and global standards development,” said Angela McKay, CAE, Executive Director of IEST. “Their continued partnership will be instrumental as we expand our programs and deepen our impact across the contamination control and environmental testing industries.”

“IEST’s work supports the professionals shaping the future of contamination control and environmental testing, and that’s a mission worth investing in for the long term,” said Adam Giandomenico, CEO of Particles Plus. “This extension reflects our commitment to IEST and the broader industry, and we’re proud to continue supporting their work in the years ahead.”

IEST remains committed to advancing industry standards, education, and the long-term growth of the contamination control field with all Partners through the Alliance for Excellence program. The partnership with Particles Plus, which began in 2025, will now continue through 2035.
