Propolis Mat – 10 Frame
Discover a smarter way to collect propolis with this easy-to-use propolis mat, designed specifically for 10-frame hives. Propolis is highly valued for its role in hive health and its many uses beyond the colony, and this mat makes harvesting it simple and efficient.
Designed to work with your bees’ natural behaviour, the mat encourages them to deposit propolis without disturbing the hive. It’s a practical, beekeeper-friendly solution for clean and consistent collection.
How Does It Work?
Bees naturally seal gaps in the hive with propolis to protect and sterilise their environment. This mat mimics those gaps, prompting bees to fill it with propolis.
Once filled, simply remove the mat, place it in the freezer, and flex it gently. The hardened propolis will break away easily, giving you a clean harvest with no scraping or mess.
Why Beekeepers Love It
This mat is designed to maximise propolis collection while keeping the process simple and efficient. It’s made from durable, food-grade plastic that can be reused season after season. The design fits standard 10-frame Langstroth hives perfectly and works with the bees’ natural behaviour to support overall hive health. It’s also easy to use and clean, making it a practical addition to any beekeeping setup.
What Sets It Apart?
Unlike traditional scraping methods that can be messy and time-consuming, this mat provides a clean, hands-free way to harvest propolis. It helps produce a purer product with less wax and debris, while also lasting for multiple seasons.
A Smarter Way to Harvest Propolis
Built with both bees and beekeepers in mind, this mat helps you maximise propolis production while keeping your hive undisturbed.
