Vax Air Silence Powered Head Vacuum

Vax is a legendary name in floorcare, having introduced the UK's first ever multi-functional carpet washer in the late 1970s. The brand was founded in 1977 by Alan Dyer and became a household name for its iconic orange tubs and specialized cleaning performance. Over the decades, Vax expanded its product line to include powerful cylinder and upright vacuums, such as the Air Silence range pictured, which emphasizes multi-cyclonic technology and quiet operation.

While the brand maintains its historical roots and headquarters in the United Kingdom, manufacturing operations are primarily conducted in China to ensure global competitiveness and scalability. In terms of ownership, Vax has been a subsidiary of the Hong Kong-based conglomerate Techtronic Industries (TTI) since 1999. TTI is a world leader in power tools and floorcare, also owning brands like Hoover and Ryobi, and oversees the strategic direction and innovation for Vax from its global headquarters.
