Paxman AB makes scalp-cooling systems used by cancer patients during chemotherapy. Its main product is a wearable cooling cap and the control equipment that keeps the scalp cold before, during, and after treatment. The goal is to reduce chemotherapy-related hair loss, which can matter a lot to patients’ quality of life.

The company sells these systems to hospitals, cancer clinics, and healthcare providers that treat oncology patients. It also earns money from consumables and service around the equipment, which helps create repeat business after the system is installed. In practice, Paxman sits between medical-device maker and treatment-support supplier: it provides the hardware, the treatment protocol, and the ongoing support needed to use scalp cooling in a clinic setting.

What makes the business distinct is that it focuses on a very specific part of cancer care rather than broad medical equipment. Its products are used alongside chemotherapy, so the customer is usually the treatment center, while the end user is the patient. That gives Paxman a niche role in oncology where demand is tied to cancer treatment adoption and the willingness of clinics to offer scalp cooling as part of patient care.
