| History
The
original Vornado fans were built in Wichita, Kansas, in the
1940s and '50s by the O.A. Sutton Company, which has
long-since retired. Turned-aluminum construction, innovative
design and superb performance...these were the qualities
that made Vornado the consumers' choice for decades.
In 1989,
Michael C. Coup founded a new Vornado company. With its
first whole-room air circulator, a significantly higher-tech
version of the original Vornado fan. The Vornado brand
quickly became known as the leading designer, manufacturer,
and supplier of air comfort products. Since 1989, the
Vornado line has expanded to encompass more than 25 models
across five distinct comfort categories including air
circulators, Air Purifiers, whole room heaters, whole room
humidifiers and oscillating fans – all bearing the Vornado
brand, the most trusted brand in air comfort for more than
50 years.
Design and engineering, as well as some manufacturing functions, are performed in-house
at Vornado’s 120,000 square-foot headquarters in Andover,
Kansas. Vornado also is home to the Antique Fan Collectors
Museum, featuring the most comprehensive collection of air
moving devices in the world, including rare fans dating back
to the mid-1800s. We invite you to visit the museum and our
