DRONE Plastic Foundation – Full Depth – Pink
DRONE plastic foundation differs from ordinary foundation in that the cell size is larger (6.2mm). The distinctive pink color makes it easy to identify in the hive at a glance.
Please note this listing is for the plastic foundation only. Frames sold separately.
Common uses of frone foundation:
- Queen rearing operations and mating nucleus colonies
- Varroa mite management through drone brood trapping
- Maintaining genetic diversity in your apiary
- Easier honey extraction – when used in the honey supers the larger cells make spinning thick honey varieties like jellybush or manuka significantly easier (use a queen excluder to keep brood out of honey supers)
Why Plastic Foundation?
- Durable and resistant to hive tool damage
- Reusable season after season – more cost-effective long-term
- Wax moth and rodent-proof – safe storage at any temperature
- No blowouts during extraction
- No wire or eyelets needed – grooved edges fit snugly in standard full depth frames
