PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Manufactured in the same style as those included with our Flow Hive 2, these sustainably sourced ThermoGrade® Paulownia, Australian Araucaria, or New Zealand Radiata brood boxes are manufactured in Langstroth deep 8 or 10 frame sizing.
They can be used for brood, or as an additional conventional honey super.
The brood box includes our unique V™ design which also doubles as a feature handle. 8 foundationless brood frames are also included for the bees to naturally build their brood comb. The brood frames are also built to accommodate wax and wire or plastic foundation if you wish.
Made in Australia or New Zealand from durable, sustainably sourced timber, these brood boxes are the ideal addition to any existing hive set-up.
PRODUCT COMPATIBILITY
This product is manufactured to the same specifications as the Flow Hive 2, and Flow Hive 2+ and is compatible with all individual components in this range.
Also designed to be compatible with Langstroth hives – please check specific dimensions here.
*Can be used in conjunction with our Flow Hive Classic collection, however, there is a minor sizing difference in the external timber width. More information here.
WHAT SIZE DO I NEED
Our Flow Frames are slightly wider than traditional wooden brood frames, so less of them are required to fill the super in a hive in comparison to brood frames in the brood box.
– Our 8 Frame Brood Box is compatible with the 6 Frame Flow hive.
– Our 10 Frame Brood Box is compatible with the 7 Frame Flow hive.
SAFETY & CARE GUIDE
All ThermoGrade® Paulownia, Araucaria and Radiata timber Flow Hives and Supers need to be sealed with at least 2 coats of exterior-grade, good quality house paint. As with all outdoor paint, it will require a refresh every 12-24 months, depending on local conditions.

Responsibly sourced timber
Our Flow Hive 2 Brood Boxes are crafted from responsibly sourced ThermoGrade Paulownia, selected for durability and reliable performance outdoors.
Sourced from managed, fast-growing Paulownia plantations, the timber undergoes a specialised thermal modification process using only heat and steam. This chemical-free treatment improves stability by reducing moisture movement within the wood.
The ThermoGrade Paulownia supply chain has been independently audited by Preferred by Nature, a globally recognised non-profit that works with organisations to promote responsible land management and climate-friendly forestry practices.
