MAX. IMPURITIES

Wax foundation embossed at the standard 5.4 mm cell, sold by the sheet, in six formats.

Wax collected from beekeepers across Spain. One ingredient — beeswax — and a short process: centrifuged, washed, melted and filtered before embossing.

01 · WHICH SIZE?

The frame decides, not the hive

The sheet goes inside the frame, so what decides is the format of your frame, not the name of the hive.

Dadant 27 × 42Dadant brood frame.
Langstroth 20 × 42Langstroth frame, brood or super.
Shallow 13 × 42Dadant and Langstroth supers.
Layens 30 × 35Layens hive, deep frame.
Dadant Blatt 26 × 41European Dadant Blatt.
Lusitana 26 × 33Lusitana hive.

02 · PROCESS

What is done to the wax before embossing

It is centrifuged, washed and melted above 100 °C; decanting happens at 80 °C and then it is filtered. What we are not going to tell you is that it comes out free of impurities: the data sheet itself allows up to 0.5 %, which is normal in sheeted wax and what filtering lets through. Acidity, saponification and hydrocarbon figures are in the downloadable data sheet.

03 · HANDLING

It melts at 61 °C, which is why it arrives delicate

A sheet starts to soften around 61 °C, and the back of a van in August goes past that. In summer it may arrive slightly warped; it recovers if you leave it flat, in the shade, with a little weight on top for a few hours. Cold does the opposite: it turns brittle and a corner snaps easily. To fit it, embed it into the frame wire by warming the wire with a transformer.

04 · BEFORE YOU BUY

By the sheet, and measure your frame

It is sold by the sheet, not in 5 kg packs. And measure the height of your frame: some Dadant frames are 41.5 cm while the sheet comes at 42, so half a centimetre may need trimming off.

✓ FITSAll six formats above, according to the frame you are fitting.
⚠ NOT INCLUDEDThe frame and the wire: the sheet only.

Do you have any questions about Beewax Foundation sheet (sold by unit)?

Can these sheets be used to make candles?

Yes. They are 100 % beeswax, the same wax as the 5 kg pack, and they work both ways: rolled cold around a wick, or melted and poured into a mould. For rolling, choose the flexible sheet, which bends without cracking; the rigid one snaps when folded. For melting the type does not matter: what counts is the weight, and a sheet weighs between 90 and 125 g depending on the format. There is no “candle” cut size: pick the one that matches the candle length you want.
