HBOT Chambers & Systems from HAUX-LIFE-SUPPORT GmbH
HAUX-LIFE-SUPPORT GmbH is a German manufacturer of monoplace and multiplace hyperbaric chamber systems, produced in Karlsbad-Ittersbach and Cuxhaven. Its status as an EU medical device manufacturer is register-verified in EUDAMED (SRN DE-MF-000019457, active); its other quality certifications are manufacturer-stated only. Documented reference installations are large hospital and navy systems across Europe, most recently the 2025 Pasteur II Hospital project in Nice.
Company & Products
HAUX-LIFE-SUPPORT GmbH builds pressure chamber systems in Germany, with production sites in Karlsbad-Ittersbach and Cuxhaven. Its hyperbaric range covers both monoplace and multiplace chambers, with capacities from 1 to 24 persons and operating pressures from 3 to 21 ATA according to the manufacturer's product documentation.
Sources disagree on maximum capacity: the manufacturer's product page states 2 to 24 patients 'and more', while its company page describes the 2025 Pasteur II Hospital installation in Nice as treating up to 30 patients simultaneously. This profile uses the conservative product-page maximum of 24.
Certifications & Verification
Register-verified: HAUX-LIFE-SUPPORT is listed in EUDAMED, the EU medical device database, as an active manufacturer under SRN DE-MF-000019457 (checked 2026-07-22). This confirms its formal status as an EU medical device manufacturer.
Manufacturer-stated, not independently verified: the company states it has held EN 46001 certification for medical device manufacturers since 2002, and cites a 2006 DNV (formerly Germanischer Lloyd) certification of its HAUX-SPRAY-FOG fire suppression system. Neither claim could be checked against a public register.
Our dossier records no FDA 510(k) clearance for HAUX-LIFE-SUPPORT. Buyers targeting the US market should verify regulatory status directly with the manufacturer.
Service & Support
The manufacturer states it provides worldwide maintenance and repair 'around the globe and around the clock' through factory-trained technicians, backed by a large spare-parts warehouse for rapid repairs.
Operator training is offered in person and digitally at the HAUX-TRAINING-CENTER (HTC) and the HAUX-INNOVATION-CENTER (HIC), including training chambers. Warranty terms and pricing are not published; both must be requested directly.
Reference Installations
The company's own history page lists a series of institutional installations: Pasteur II Hospital in Nice, France (2025, described by the manufacturer as Europe's largest hyperbaric chamber system), Ostrava City Hospital in the Czech Republic (2024), the Czech Institute of Aviation Medicine in Prague (2021), University Hospital Lille, France (2012), and Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm (2005).
Military and diving-medicine references include the Swedish Navy Diving Training Center (2011) and the Naval Hospital of the Greek Navy in Athens (2004). All references are manufacturer-stated.
Who It Suits
Everything in the dossier points to clinical and institutional buyers: multiplace chambers for up to 24 persons, operating pressures up to 21 ATA, and reference customers that are university hospitals, aviation-medicine institutes and navies. This is equipment for hospitals, hyperbaric centers and military or diving-medicine facilities.
There is no soft-chamber or home-use product line in the dossier, and no published pricing that would allow a wellness-studio comparison. Home users and small studio operators are outside the documented product scope.
Every data point on this profile is source-checked. Certifications are only marked as verified when confirmed in official registers - never on manufacturer claims alone.
