Patented Testing Equipment

Who We Are

JEM Designs is a privately owned professional system design and manufacturing company founded by Joseph E. Morris, Jr. in 1997. We provide real solutions for structural, process, coating, material, plant, pipeline, O & G, and corrosion professionals through innovative complete system designs. This allows one to best simulate actual process conditions, viewed essential pursuant sound evaluation of critical or problematic material selection, chemical treatment and/or process or equipment design issues faced by clients.


We strive to constantly produce high quality, cost efficient, and versatile systems for our clients based on proven professional engineering principles. . We are dedicated and continue to soundly challenge the status quo, explore and develop new valid means pursuant real positive change.


Our staff consists of seasoned NACE specialists and registered professional engineers from diverse engineering disciplines (i.e. mechanical, electrical, corrosion, etc.), reflecting more than fifty (50) combined years of experience in the industry. We specialize in leading edge technologies, machine designs and consulting services that serve all industries.


JEM Designs' systems are professionally engineered to suite client mandates and meet or exceed all governing design codes and/or standards (e.g. UL, CSA, etc.) per specific unit types. Our products are available in different sizes, configurations and functions, each offering constant high temperature and/or pressure options for independent test cell applications.


All JEM Designs test units are "EXPLOSION PROOF," contain no flammable / combustible parts, incorporate high efficiency / accurate thermocouples, detectors, heaters, controllers, and safety control elements. Further, our patented design features can be engineered into pre-existing test reactor systems at minimal cost. 


We attribute our company's business success and longevity to our proven ability to produce novel high quality, versatile, and cost efficient test apparatuses that model actual system conditions; and generate highly reproducible test data that show direct correlation to actual field measurements. Our novel systems have been sourced/used and/or purchased by most major O & G corporations for more than two (2) decades with exceptional positive reviews (in all cases).


JEM's single-source manufacturing facility is based in the US and is ISO 9001 certified. Our proven business services and capabilities have much to offer our clients; you can have peace of mind knowing that you will receive products of unsurpassed quality from us.

Meet Our Founder

Joseph E. Morris, Jr. is the founder of JEM Designs. He has a Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering (BSME) and is a graduate of the advanced Corrosion and Materials Engineering program at the University of Southwestern Louisiana (USL). He is also a US ARMY veteran who served in the renowned 1st 11th Blackhorse Regiment, Fulda, West Germany.


Mr. Morris started his extensive career with a major U.S. structural engineering corporation (i.e. Guy F. Atkinson, South San Francisco, CA) in which all of the required skills in mechanical engineering design were used. He is the inventor, patents' owner, and licensor of all JEM Designs' products (i.e. an international professional engineering design/manufacturing and consulting business entity) which showcases his own unique patented systems for industry license and/or sale.


Mr. Morris is a certified NACE International Corrosion and Catholic Protection (CP) Specialist (N0. 4165) with over twenty (20) years of extensive international experience in high level corporate business/staff development and major project management in all areas of corrosion, materials engineering, CP system design, feed to final stage design (i.e. facility/process/boiler/machine, etc.), pipeline inspection (IDI/DE), plant/pipeline integrity management, real time corrosion monitoring and mitigation strategies, etc. as lead Subject Matter Expert (SME) and department head.


He is recognized and highly respected by industry peers as a "GO TO" problem solver and real pioneer in complex innovative machine design and manufacture. Moreover, he has conducted, managed and led teams of specialists/engineers in  multifaceted high profile technical business initiatives in the USA, Canada and Middle East (i.e. North East Africa), and Asia for more than two (2) decades. He has soundly identified and completely resolved core problematic process, manufacture, material suitability and corrosion issues via complex failure analysis.


Mr. Morris’s extensive diverse work history has enabled him to produce highly specialized complete systems to soundly address today’s ADVANCE research challenges.
