Whether in Wardenburg, Poland, Vietnam or Australia. Our team always works for a common goal - to produce quality products that deserve the name PAX. This is our top priority.
PAX – What and most importantly who is behind these three capital letters? What is worth knowing about us as an enterprise? In the following sections we would like to tell you about our history, our guiding principles, our distrirubtors and the team that is PAX.
About us
We and you
We - that are Vietnamese, Polish and German tailors specialised in quality bags. People who put all their strength and ability into our products . We - in the leadership of Andreas Harms - interpret my position as a responsible role model for quality products.
Our work for good products is our heart's desire. With this strength we secure healthy, fairly socially insured jobs for our international team. And we treat the environment with the same respect: we (almost) clean the wastewater produced during textile treatment to drinking water quality, and we can confidently describe finished fabric as completely skin-friendly. Our print jobs are also (almost) always climate-neutral. We are proud of all this and like to work for it.
With our products we like to be one thing: very close to your side. Our PAX Bags are not only reliable, practical and durable. We want them to be loyal companions in everything you do. And you do a lot, and it's almost always vital. That is why we want to be one step ahead in communication: Very close to you. Tell us what's better and what you want. We're working with your criticism to continually improve our PAX Bags.

PAX - up close and personal
Even we sometimes wonder how our PAX bags made it out of Andreas garage. Today they can be found in Portugal, Hungary and even in the high latitudes of Finland.
More than 50 dealers worldwide have added PAX bags to their product range. Are you sure there's someone near you? Of all things? Then call us. We are used to breaking new ground.
