TITUSVILLE, FL – May 24, 2021 – It was announced today that the owner of Titusville, Florida-based CorTru has sold the business to a current top CorTru executive.  CorTru is the dba brand for SDB Engineers & Constructors, Inc.

Michael B. Workman, PE, CorTru’s general manager, has completed a private purchase of the 25-year old, family owned construction solutions company. The Workman family formed M5K Enterprises, Inc. (M5K) as acquisition discussions with the former owners matured.  M5K is a SAM (System for Award Management) registered, veteran-owned small business (VOSB).  Additional terms of the agreement were not disclosed. 

CorTru provides solutions to the specialty construction sector including painting and industrial coatings, custom metal fabrication, and rigging and erection.  CorTru is a Florida-certified general contractor and a certified paint contractor.

“Although we’re classified as a small business, and now a veteran-owned small business, CorTru has a long-standing reputation for excellence on government programs and projects, specialty fabrication for utilities, and specialty coating solutions for manufacturers.” Workman said.  “We will continue to serve clients who demand expertise in our core skill set.  CorTru maintains industry recognized quality standards and performance accreditations such as AISC-certified erectors and SSPC-QP1 certification for application of advanced coatings.  We also have our own in-house team of NACE certified coating inspectors.” 

Originally named SDB Engineers & Constructors, Inc., the enterprise underwent a rebranding as CorTru in 2019.
