Puracell Foundation for Brood Frames
Puracell foundation is a high-quality, durable, and sustainable solution designed for brood frames in beekeeping. Made from 100% food-grade plastic, it provides a strong and stable structure for honeybee colonies to build their comb. Unlike traditional beeswax foundation, Puracell foundation is resistant to sagging, warping, and damage caused by hive beetles or wax moths, ensuring a longer-lasting and more reliable option for beekeepers.
One of the key advantages of Puracell foundation is its ease of use. It is pre-molded with deep, well-defined hexagonal cells that closely mimic natural honeycomb, encouraging bees to quickly accept and draw out comb. The uniform cell size supports optimal brood rearing, allowing the queen to lay eggs efficiently while worker bees maintain the hive. Additionally, it reduces the risk of drone comb in standard brood frames, promoting a healthier colony structure.
Puracell foundation is also coated with a thin layer of real beeswax, enhancing its acceptance by bees. This coating can be refreshed over time if needed, further extending its usability. Beekeepers appreciate its reusable nature, as it can be easily cleaned and reinserted into frames season after season. This makes it a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to disposable wax foundations.
Another major benefit of Puracell foundation is its compatibility with both wooden and plastic frames. It is available in various sizes to fit Langstroth, Dadant, and other hive types, making it a versatile choice for both hobbyists and commercial beekeepers.
With its durability, ease of use, and long-term benefits, Puracell foundation for brood frames is an excellent investment for beekeepers looking to maintain strong, healthy colonies while minimizing maintenance and replacement costs.
