Foundation Beeswax – Full Depth, Ideal & WSP
Preparing beehive frames becomes easier when you have a dependable supply of quality beeswax foundation. Our Foundation Beeswax is a practical choice for assembling new frames, replacing aging comb and preparing additional equipment as your apiary grows.
Made from Australian beeswax, each embossed sheet provides bees with an established starting point for drawing straight and organised comb. As a result, it can help make frame preparation more efficient when setting up brood boxes, honey supers or replacement frames.
In addition, this beeswax foundation is available in Full Depth, WSP and Ideal sizes. Therefore, you can select the correct depth to suit your existing Langstroth frames and hive configuration.
