Eurovent joins the Indoor Air Quality Society

BRUSSELS, Belgium, 23 June 2026: Eurovent has joined the Indoor Air Quality Society (IAQS), saying the move strengthens cooperation between the European HVACR industry and the community of IAQ experts

Making the announcement through a June 23 Press Release, Eurovent said the membership supports its aim to place IAQ more firmly on the public health and policy agenda. The cooperation, Eurovent said, came to be confirmed following its Annual Meeting in Brussels.

According to Eurovent, IAQS aims to translate indoor air science into actions that improve IAQ and make millions of lives healthier, happier and longer. Eurovent said it aims to contribute to this mission, adding the perspective of the technology providers whose solutions make good indoor air achievable in practice.

Stijn Renneboog, Eurovent Deputy Secretary General, said: “Buildings should provide healthy indoor environments, yet indoor air quality is still too often treated as a secondary issue in the building sector. As a result, health and wellbeing suffer, as the public health science clearly shows. IAQS plays an important role in bringing this evidence into the wider conversation on policy and practice. The goal: To make sure healthy indoor air becomes the norm in European buildings. Eurovent is joining IAQS to throw its weight behind this essential mission.”

Marianne Kemmer, CEO, Indoor Air Quality Society, said: “The Indoor Air Quality Society is delighted to collaborate with Eurovent. Indoor air quality and HVACR systems are inseparable when it comes to creating healthy, comfortable, and sustainable indoor environments. By bringing together our respective expertise, we aim to strengthen dialogue, promote best practices, and support the uptake of innovative solutions that enhance both occupant wellbeing and building performance across Europe.”

IAQ affects health, comfort, learning, productivity and resilience, yet it remains less visible in policy and investment decisions than energy performance or outdoor air quality, Eurovent said. Eurovent said it will jointly explore cooperation with IAQS on awareness-raising, evidence development, policy engagement and practical initiatives to support healthier indoor environments in Europe.
