From hive insulation products, specially suited for the cold winter months, through carefully designed protective grids, to modern solutions for bee transportation, you'll find everything your bee colonies truly need.

Hive Insulation

Keeping your bees warm during cold weather periods is essential. For hive insulation, we provide several effective solutions, including the traditional felt insulation sized 50 x 50 cm, renowned for providing bees excellent thermal protection. Alternatively, our modern aluminium-coated XPE foam insulation is recommended for its innovative closed-cell foam structure, offering superior insulation properties while remaining environmentally friendly. This material is available either in convenient 50 x 50 cm sheets or larger rolls to meet more extensive needs.

Protective Grids and Wire Meshes

Securing your hives against unwanted intruders while maintaining optimal air circulation is an interesting challenge. Our selection of galvanised and stainless-steel mesh panels effectively covers hive openings, preventing access by unwanted insects and ensuring excellent ventilation at the same time. Mesh with 3.15 mm size openings safely and effectively protects your bee colonies without compromising hive safety.

Bee Feeding and Hydration

Proper feeding contributes significantly to the strong and healthy development of your colonies. Our versatile range of bee feeders meets the varying requirements of colonies, from compact ceiling feeders to larger capacity containers and convenient frame feeders designed to fit securely within hive supers. Additionally, ensuring proper hydration is made easy through our practical water drinkers, which easily install into hive entrances.

Colony Protection and Expansion

For beekeepers specifically involved in queen rearing, colony protection, and hive expansion, we offer a selection of quality queen isolators, as well as compact and effective Styrodur mating nucs and mini-hives. These specialized products facilitate the management and nurturing of developing or weaker bee colonies. Our lightweight yet highly sturdy transport boxes provide safe and practical solutions for moving small colonies over both short and long distances.

Inspection and Hive Maintenance

Regular hive inspections and monitoring are crucial aspects of successful beekeeping. To support your hive management efforts, we supply a range of essential tools, including thermo-crystal thermometers for monitoring hive internal temperatures, spacers for accurate frame alignment, and various other accessories. Attention to maintenance details helps minimise the risk of health problems within colonies and ensures their optimal productivity.
