After the Second World War ended in 1945 inventor and entrepreneur Folke Andersson founded Pax and started producing extractor fans for kitchens.
Folke Andersson, who had by then moved offices and production to the town of Hälleforsnäs in Sörmland, and Pax launched Sweden’s first extractor fan made and approved for wet rooms.
Every year, Pax sells almost 100,000 wet room fans. Since Folke Andersson founded the company, around three million Pax fans have been sold, contributing to better air in the home.
In 2013, Pax was acquired by Volution Holdings, and is today part of the publicly-listed Volution Group Plc, a leading supplier of ventilation products with main markets in the UK and Northern Europe.
