Tech-Western, Inc. was founded in 1985 by Dan Spletzer and Rob Brown. The initial growth of the company was fueled by its success in undertaking unique and complex projects in industrial construction as well as storage and material handling systems.
For almost 30 years, Tech-Western has built cold storage and distribution systems in virtually every corner of the USA. One of our more challenging projects was constructing a 104,000 square foot cold storage facility for a major brewery in seventeen weeks. In more recent years the company’s focus was directed towards building retail and residential projects including construction of a 31,000 square foot grocery store from ground up in just over six months.

Today, Tech-Western has a strong interest in constructing energy efficient systems. Our experience with building energy efficient cold storage facilities has enabled us to better understand the need for utilizing new state-of-the-art energy efficient technologies.
In 2003, Tech-Western was contacted by a group of manufacturers in Germany interested in bringing their “Green Energy Efficient” technologies to the USA. That technology included solar thermal domestic hot water and in-floor radiant heat / cool systems, wind energy and solar photovoltaic systems, European style tilt-turn windows, wall hung water saving toilets and whole house water recycling / treatment systems. Tech-Western spent the next year learning about these technologies before bringing these ideas to Colorado.
In 2005, we shipped a 5,400 square foot home featuring German technologies from a plant in Geseke, Germany to a job site in Kersey, Colorado. The main structure, including all interior and exterior walls, exterior tilt / turn windows and complete roof system was erected in just over two weeks. The balance of the project was finished in a normal time frame and the end result was a high energy efficient home built to last decades longer than homes built in a more conventional manner.
Tech-Western has aligned with the largest and most knowledgeable German companies who have manufactured and installed “Green Energy Efficient” technologies for decades. Through this partnership we have developed a proficient understanding of design and installation systems that most building and contracting companies in this country don’t even know exist.
