In an era where the hottest summer ever recorded has necessitated innovative solutions to manage rising temperatures and meet evolving state requirements for worker safety, Big Ass Fans and Lexmark have joined forces to introduce CommandSense. This groundbreaking IoT-powered comfort hoodie is designed to revolutionise the industrial facilities landscape.
CommandSense, set to be available in April 2025, is a fully automated system that offers unparalleled comfort control.

By mitigating heat stress by up to 60% and boosting employee productivity by up to 50% when paired with Big Ass fans and heaters, CommandSense aims to improve worker safety and lower energy costs.
The technology for CommandSense was supplied by Lexmark, with the company providing the foundational technology that allows Big Ass Fans to offer comfort without compromise. Demetrios Karathanasis, the IoT portfolio director for Lexmark, expressed excitement about the innovation that CommandSense represents.
