    Hive World’s Full Depth Plastic Foundation Insert fits neatly into Grooved Timber Frames.

    Available in Full depth or 3/4 Depth, choose from plain or pre-waxed. Sold in packs of 10.

    Plastic foundation needs to be waxed to encourage the bees to draw out the comb.  This is an economical way of providing for your hives as beeswax foundation is becoming an increasingly costly option.   Plastic is more robust than wax foundation therefore it can handle the extraction process repeatedly.

    These kitset  drilled timber frames are made from New Zealand pine.

    Available in full depth only

    They come ready to assemble with pre-drilled holes to insert your rivets (to prevent the wire cutting the timber) and thread the wire through.  These are the original favourite and most natural style of Langstroth frame for the bees therefore they have no problems in drawing out the comb.
    We also sell the wire, rivets and beeswax foundation for you to completely ready your frames.

    Sold in packs of 10.
