Bee Hive-Ready NZ Pinewood Frames

We're proud to present you our bee hive-ready frames and is by far one of our best seller - and for good reasons.

Using the Highest Grade New Zealand Sourced Pine Wood

Why NZ Pine Wood?

NZ Radiata Pinewood is highly regarded as the best material for frames because it is light and most suited to the unique Australian climate.

In comparison pinewood sourced from other countries tend to deform and split under our conditions.

Sustainably sourced. Plantation grown.

Made in Australia

Our beeswax drone comb foundations are locally made using 100% from local trusted source of unadulterated [pure] beeswax. Drone comb foundations produced right here in our warehouse using the best equipment. 

Drone Cell Size: 6.8-mm

We've taken the hassle and stress away with the assembly process; gluing; nailing; wiring and embedding the frame together.

Every detail is factored in because we don't want our frames to fall apart when it counts most - out on the fields in the heat of chaos.

Well worth it if you've ever self-assembled before!
