Our Story

A Family Business Built on Hard Work & Integrity

Founded in 1999 as a father-and-son venture, Colex has grown through hard work, integrity, and a commitment to quality. Since Jason Cole took over operations in 2008 and full ownership in 2025, the next generation continues to lead with the same values at heart.
