How does the wax dipping process work? The boxes are dipped in a microcrystalline wax blend at high temperatures, which pushes moisture out of the box and impregnates the wood with the wax. The wax preserves the wood for years by shedding moisture and preventing fungal growth and decay.
What grade of lumber are the hive kits made from? Pura hive bodies & supers are made from select- and commercial-grade eastern white pine. There will be occasional tight knots, though not in structurally integral locations (i.e., joints, handles, frame rests).
How much beeswax is coated on the frames? Our hive and super kits come pre-installed with double-waxed frames.
Is assembly required? No. The hive kit comes ready to go, right out of the box.
How are the joints secured? All Pura hive bodies & supers are glued with specially formulated, fully waterproof Hivebond 4000 wood glue. The dovetail joints are then stapled with 12 galvanized staples for long-lasting security.
Long-lasting protection without the hassle.
Dipped in a premium microcrystalline wax blend by Nature’s Image Farm™, this “Endurahive™” kit weathers the elements without having to stress about painting or reworking later on. With wax permeating throughout, this box is built to shed moisture and prevent rot for years to come.
No paint. No rot. No hassle.
Better box design.
Our Pura hive bodies are carefully designed and built for comfort and durability. A half-blind dovetail joint secures stronger than any other joint. The inset frame rest creates a full top joint, preventing chip-outs during inspections. And our broad handhold design makes lifting easy as pie, with gradual tapers to repel rainwater.
Dipped by the experts at Nature’s Image Farm.
Nature’s Image Farm™ has all the experience and knowledge when it comes to the wax dipping process. With a formulated microcrystalline wax blend and time-tested method, the Endurahive™ process expels moisture out of the box and impregnates the wood with wax, preventing rot and decay.
Loaded with double-waxed Pura frames.
You’ve got the best box in beekeeping — Now you’ve got the best frame also. With a cell pattern that mimics the exact pattern found in natural comb and the strongest capping beeswax coating, our frames get drawn faster than any other frame.
