The Fanimation Story

Tom Frampton began his ceiling fan career in 1973, working under Burton A. Burton of Casablanca Fans. In 1984, Frampton started his own ceiling fan company, Fanimation, working out of his garage in Pasadena until demand for his product outgrew the space. He moved the company to Indiana in 1994, took on some more workers and hit the ground running with his culturally inspired ceiling fan designs. The company is now run by his son, Nathan Frampton.

Why We Love Fanimation Ceiling Fans

The fans you'll find in Fanimation are all inspired by Frampton's travels around the world. The Punkah fan, inspired by the tropics (and one of many tropical fans in the Fanimation ceiling fans line), was Frampton's first really popular fan thanks to its unique multi-fan, single motor design. The thing with Fanimation is that Frampton learned the foundations of fan building from one of the best in the business during his time at Casablanca Fans. But he's not afraid to push the envelope when it comes to being inventive and creatively honest, creating unique fans for enthusiasts of modern design.
