HONESTBEE, your trusted wholesale partner in beekeeping supplies, proudly offers our Assembled Wooden Bee Frames featuring robust Plastic Foundation. Engineered for the modern commercial apiary and discerning bee equipment distributors, these frames combine the traditional appeal of wood with the long-lasting resilience and convenience of plastic foundation, delivering exceptional value and performance.
Professional Design and Robust Construction
Our frames are built to a professional standard, ensuring they integrate seamlessly into any beekeeping operation and provide years of reliable service.
- Frame Construction: Each frame is meticulously assembled from high-quality, smooth-finished pine timber. The wood is selected for its optimal balance of strength and light weight. Top bars, bottom bars, and side bars are precision-cut and securely joined (stapled) to create a sturdy, square frame that maintains its integrity under load.
- Plastic Foundation: The core of these frames is a durable, food-grade plastic foundation sheet. It features a precisely molded hexagonal cell pattern, providing bees with an ideal template for drawing comb. The plastic material is designed to withstand the rigors of hive life and honey extraction.
- Secure Foundation Fit: The plastic foundation fits snugly and securely within the grooves of the wooden frame components, ensuring it remains stable and providing a continuous surface for the bees.
- Overall Appearance: The natural wood frame combined with the uniformly patterned plastic foundation presents a clean, professional, and highly functional unit, ready for immediate introduction into the hive.
Foundation Specifics: Color and Coating Options
We offer flexibility to suit your specific beekeeping preferences and needs:
- Material: High-density, food-grade polypropylene.
- Cell Pattern: Standard worker bee cell size, deeply impressed for optimal bee acceptance.
- Available Colors:
- Black: Highly popular as it makes spotting eggs, larvae, and the queen much easier.
- Yellow: Offers a traditional look, mimicking natural beeswax.
- Green: Can be used for specific hive management or identification purposes.
- Other colors may be available upon special request for bulk orders.
- Optional Wax Coating: For enhanced bee acceptance and to encourage faster comb drawing, our plastic foundations can be ordered with a light, even coating of pure beeswax. This bridges the gap between the convenience of plastic and the natural appeal of wax.
Dimensions and Customization
Our frames are designed to fit standard hive equipment, with options for bespoke requirements.
- Standard Sizes: Readily available for:
- Langstroth Deep Brood Boxes (9 1/8" height)
- Langstroth Medium Honey Supers (6 1/4" height)
- Langstroth Shallow Honey Supers (5 3/8" height)
- Customization: HONESTBEE can accommodate custom frame dimensions to suit specialized hive bodies or beekeeping systems. Please contact us with your specific requirements for volume orders. Foundation color and wax coating preferences can also be specified.
Key Features and Functionality
These frames are engineered for maximum durability, ease of use, and hive productivity:
- Ready-to-Use: Save significant time and labor. Frames arrive fully assembled with the plastic foundation installed, ready for immediate placement in your hives.
- Exceptional Durability: Plastic foundation is highly resistant to damage from wax moths, rodents, and the stress of honey extraction, offering a significantly longer lifespan than traditional wax foundation.
- Reusable & Long-Lasting: These frames can be cleaned and reused for many seasons, making them a very cost-effective choice in the long run.
- Efficient Comb Drawing: The uniform cell pattern guides bees to build straight, consistent combs. Wax-coated options further accelerate this process.
- Easy Inspection: Especially with black foundation, identifying eggs and brood stages becomes much simpler.
- Consistent Cell Size: Promotes uniform brood patterns and efficient space utilization by the colony.
- Simplified Cleaning: Plastic foundation can often be scraped clean more easily than wax, and can withstand power washing (with care).

- Honey Production: Withstands the forces of centrifugal extractors repeatedly.
- Brood Rearing: Provides a stable and consistent surface for queen laying and brood development.
