ViAQ Diagnostic Tool Receives Esteemed Award
Innovative Solutions Recognized for Advancing Automotive Standards
Memphis, Tenn. – Premium Guard Inc. (PGI), a renowned leader in the automotive filtration industry, recently achieved remarkable recognition from the Auto Care Association. Their latest innovation, the ViAQ Diagnostic Tool, designed to assess vehicle interior air quality, was awarded the title of Best Repair Solution or Tool for Import Vehicles during the prestigious Import Product and Marketing Awards.
Revolutionizing Cabin Air Quality Monitoring
For over two decades, cabin air filters have been integral to vehicle maintenance, tasked with protecting occupants from undesirable particles like dust and pollen. However, until now, assessing the effectiveness of these filters was largely a matter of guesswork, relying on mileage or visual inspections that could overlook hidden contaminants.
ViAQ changes this game by introducing the first diagnostic system specifically aimed at evaluating cabin air filter performance. This tool analyzes the air quality within the vehicle, providing an accurate and non-invasive measurement of particulate concentration and filter efficiency, all without needing to remove the filter. This capability transforms how maintenance decisions are made, equipping drivers with data-driven insights for better vehicle care.
Premium Guard’s Commitment to Innovation
“This award from the Auto Care Association underscores our dedication to innovation that genuinely addresses industry needs,” remarked Anan Bishara, CEO and Founder of Premium Guard Inc. “ViAQ was developed to tackle real-world challenges for service professionals and consumers, fostering trust and transparency in in-vehicle air quality assessments.”
The commitment to providing robust solutions is evident with ViAQ, reinforcing PGI's mission to enhance the health and safety of passengers through advanced automotive filtration technology.
In addition to securing the Import Product and Marketing Award, ViAQ also earned acclaim earlier this year by winning a 2025 Motor Top 20 Award, illustrating its significant impact on both technicians and vehicle owners.
