Founded in 1983 by Rick Butler, Aardex emerged from challenges, learning to thrive in real estate and construction through perseverance and vertically integrating to fulfill specific needs in markets across the Mountain West.
From government build-to-suits to groundbreaking LEED-certified buildings, Aardex literally wrote the book on the power of good design. Leveraging a vertically integrated model, the company successfully pursued diverse development ventures in healthcare, hotels and more.
Our greatest strength has always been our willingness and ability to evolve to meet the needs of the markets and communities we serve. With a real estate development and ownership portfolio spanning seven states, Aardex’s commitment to quality and community continues to inform the company’s decisions.
