Acorn Beekeeping Equipment was started in 2013 to satisfy the needs of commercial, sideliner, and backyard beekeepers worldwide. We had one goal—design and produce the highest quality one-piece plastic bee frames, foundations, and drone combs on the market.

We think that bees deserve the best because of the vital role they play in human survival. Everyone knows that bees produce high-quality food-honey and jellies. But did you know that beeswax, propolis, and honey bee venom are used in healthcare products? Still, the greatest contribution bees make is the pollination of nearly three-quarters of the plants that produce 90% of the world's food.

Acorn Engineering Company has been a manufacturer of stainless steel plumbing fixtures and hand washing stations for institutional, correctional, and commercial use since 1954.

Among the Acorn^® product lines are Secur-Care^® Ligature-Resistant plumbing fixtures. These fixtures are designed to keep inmates safe and provide security, as well as helping them transition to a normal life.

Acorn also offers a wide variety of hand washing products. Acorn washbasins offer durability, style, and flexibility when outfitting commercial restrooms. Single units made of heavy-gage stainless steel are ideal for institutional and commercial applications. Multi-user stations are available in a variety of materials and designs, including stainless steel and solid surface. Portable units are available for applications where handwashing may need to be moved from place to place.

Acorn-Gencon^® Plastics started out molding all the plastic parts for the MGI family of companies. Since 1972, we've been providing complete injection molding solutions, from concept to completion, for enterprise-level manufacturers to entrepreneurs.

With one of the greatest diversities of press sizes in the industry, we are equipped to provide precision molding with tight tolerances for the electronics industry as well as large-tonnage molding.

When AcornVac was founded in 1990, vacuum plumbing's inherent security advantages made correctional facilities a natural area of focus, while its flexibility made it an ideal solution for grocery stores. Today, however, we have a presence in almost every market.

This widespread presence is because architects, building owners, and contractors understand the value of vacuum plumbing. It is a portable, flexible plumbing infrastructure that offers solutions for challenging projects. Those challenges can be due to site conditions, structural issues, or even just tenants who cannot be disrupted by construction going on above them.

Since 1966, Chronomite has engineered and manufactured point-of-use electric water heaters for the commercial and residential markets.

Every single part of our robust, energy-efficient water heaters is made right here, in North America, by us. This means components, such as flow switch mechanisms, are consistent throughout our entire line of heaters.

When we launched ConTrols^® valves in 2013, we didn't just want to improve on what was already available. Our goal from the very beginning was to start from scratch and re-think water regulation valves completely.

Our full line of water regulating products includes pressure regulating valves, thermostatic mixing valves, whole-building solutions for regulation and monitoring, and more.

In 1911, Chief Edward F. Croker left the New York City Fire Department after 27 years of service, as a result of the tragic Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire. He felt that his experience would be best put to use aiming to prevent and stop fires, rather than simply responding to them once they'd happened. Croker^® Fire Prevention was formed in New York in that same year.

The Earl L. Morris Company (ELMCO) was founded in 1945 by Earl L. Morris. Elmco^®+ Associates became a part of the Elmco^® family in 1976.

Located in Hayward, CA and Sacramento, CA, Elmco^®+ Associates serves customers in Northern California and Northern Nevada with dedicated sales and customer service staff.

FireEnd^® Products was established in 1930 to supply fire extinguishers and other firefighting equipment throughout New York City and the surrounding region.

Since then, it has grown to supply not only fire protection products, but all sorts of professional safety equipment for firefighting, EMS, law enforcement, and military uses. Its products are used around the world.

Since our inception in 1979, Fire Pro's mission has been to manufacture quality fire protection products at an affordable price with short, reliable lead times. Our mission remains the same today and is part of what makes us a thriving division of Morris Group International.

Our monitors are essential fire protection equipment in the mining industry, oil refineries, marine applications, wastewater plants, wildland vehicles, chemical and petrochemical settings, and more—but our equipment is also used for dust abatement, cleaning, and many other tasks that require precise, high-flow water delivery.

Larsen's is one of the oldest and most experienced fire equipment cabinet manufacturers in the United States. The company began in the 1930s as a sheet metal job shop, but in the 1960s we created our own brand line of fire cabinets that were both effective and beautiful, unlike the other products on the market at the time.

Over the years, we have been continually innovating with materials, design options, and specialized features for specific applications. This has made our fire extinguisher cabinets a true architectural piece of equipment and a favorite of building owners, designers, and architects.

Today, Jay R. Smith Mfg. Co. boasts more than 65 service centers around the world, but in 1926, it was just an idea. A salesman for the National Lead Company, Jay L. Smith, saw a market need for quality plumbing products. He enlisted the aid of his son, Jay R. Smith, and an industry leader was born.

Today, Smith produces a wide range of innovative plumbing products spanning everything from floor drains to electronic trap primers. Thanks to our long history in the industry and the expertise of our engineers, we understand many of the challenges facing our customers. Our Labor Saver^® line is specially designed to minimize many of these frustrations.

We don't simply stand behind the quality pledge; we have constructed and invested in Morris Group Innovation Centers (MGIC) in Los Angeles, CA; Chicago, IL; and Montgomery, AL. The MGIC hubs research, develop, and test products for all 28 Morris Group International^® (MGI) divisions, including Acorn Engineering Company^®, Jay R. Smith Mfg. Co.^®, ConTrols^®, Murdock Manufacturing^®, AcornVac, Inc.^®, Whitehall Manufacturing^®, Elmdor Manufacturing^®, Safety Manufacturing^®, Chronomite, Inc.^®, Potter-Roemer^®, Fire-Pro^®, Acorn Beekeeping Equipment^®.

The divisions encompassing MGI have a combined business experience of more than a millennium, growing despite the economic conditions by investing in technology, focusing on core strengths, and experimenting with new products and revenue streams.

Pressure-reducing valves are the latest product group emerging from our state-of-the-art facilities. In 2024, with the help of MGIC, the ConTrols^® division will introduce a line of backflow preventers. The MGIC has also sparked new product development at Acorn Engineering Company and Jay R. Smith Mfg. Co. MGIC invests further in equipment and expertise to keep new products coming. “Our core products help support the innovation of new products,” says CEO Don Morris. Coming from Acorn in 2024 is the Acorn-Sinks product line: an all-new collection of stainless steel commercial sinks. Plenty more inventive products from the Innovation Centers are planned for years to come.

"We make our stuff. We have it in inventory. And if we don't have it in inventory, we can quickly turn it around. We control our destiny." - Donald E. Morris, CEO

The product development from the Morris Group Innovation Centers significantly changes how we go to market and how our customers do business with us. To close with the words of our CEO, Don Morris: “What keeps the ideas coming is talking to lots of people, and not only talk, but listen to their ideas, watch the trends, and think about the people’s need…keep your eyes and ears open.”

MY LEGACY IS NOT EXTINCTION. MY LEGACY IS PROSPERITY AND STRENGTH.

We are a company that grows. We grow by enhancing our brands. We drive our business with new products, engineering, and uniqueness. If no new products exist, we suffer in the future.

— Donald E. Morris,CEO, Morris Group International
