Interview with IAP Air Products

February 8, 2023

Recently our Sales Manager, Josh had the pleasure of talking to Easy Engineering about our company. 

Interview with IAP

IAP Air Products is located in middle Tennessee and focuses on providing the best welding fume/dust extraction products available. The company provides a wide range of products to help suit any application that customers might need. IAP Air Products strives to provide top quality products along with the best customer service possible.


Easy Engineering International interviewed Josh and asked him a series of questions about the company, products and future plans.  Here is a selection of those questions;


What are the main areas of activity of the company?


While we offer a variety of products for different solutions, our main area of expertise revolves around fume extraction arms. We are a top supplier of fume arms in the U.S, offering 3”-8” diameter and 3’ – 14’ lengths along with different configurations (hanging or standing), materials (powder-coated steel and stainless), and styles (Standard, Stainless, and Telescopic.)


What’s the news about new products?


We don’t want to give too much away here, but we do have a few new products up our sleeves that we are getting ready to release to our customers in the U.S Market. The newest product that we have released into the market are our welding booths. Partially due to customer request and seeing how overpriced our competitors were in the market, we decided to leap headfirst into the welding booth market (which can actually be slightly different than the welding fume extraction market) and have seen a lot of success. Since entering this market, we have been able to help schools, with both large and small budgets, save money so that they can buy other products to better train their students. We have also supplied some of the largest welding distributors in the U.S., being their number 1 choice to work with! Our focus is on (1) Customer Service/Responsiveness (2) Fairly Pricing Product (3) Providing Top Quality Products.


At what stage is the market where you are currently active?


The welding fume extraction market is still an ever-growing market. While the market itself isn’t new, the resurgence of its’ importance has been risen again due to the air quality concerns brought about during the pandemic. Manufacturers, schools, and other industrial facilities now have a heightened sense about the air their employees are breathing and are taking more action to protect them.
