History
In the early 1920s, Ralph K. Odor started work on a new airplane design. By the 1930s, his patented Power Vortex design influenced modern aviation. The Vornado Plane derived its name from “Vortex” and “Tornado”, based on its pioneering aerodynamics. Utilizing this technology, the first “Vornado” fans began rolling off assembly lines in 1945.
A Brand that Become a Phenomenon
A fan unlike any other, “Vornadofans” quickly gained popularity. With their unprecedented power, streamlined beauty, and unrivaled longevity, Vornado “whole room circulators” quickly became a fixture for household cooling during the post-war boom. More than 70 years later, the Vornado circulation and comfort experience remains true to its heritage of delivering beautiful and unrivaled home comfort experiences.
