13-kg block of virgin beeswax, QSI-tested and certified free of major acaricides (amitraz, coumaphos, fluvalinate). Ideal for your own foundation production, brood-chamber renewal or high-end cosmetics. Exceptionally clean wax with natural aroma and superior plasticity. Limited availability.
When old combs are melted and sent for reworking, we’re recycling history… and residues. Beeswax is lipophilic: it traps anything fat-soluble. Acaricides, treatment molecules, and leftovers from past seasons. And they stay. You still find traces of coumaphos or fluvalinate more than fifteen years after treatments have stopped. Standard rendering doesn’t remove them; it redistributes them.
The issue becomes real when pollen sits for months inside contaminated cells. Nurse bees live shorter lives, forage less and raise brood poorly. Drones show reduced sperm motility and queens turn drone-layers earlier than expected. Above 100 ppb, colony-loss risk spikes.
This 13-kg block breaks that cycle.
This is virgin beeswax sourced from batches selected for their natural cleanliness and ultra-low residue levels. Each batch is verified by QSI (Quality Services International), one of Europe’s strictest laboratories for beekeeping contaminants.
The included report certifies absence of major acaricides: amitraz, coumaphos, fluvalinate, tau-fluvalinate, bromopropylate. If you want a clean base for producing your own foundation sheets, this is as close to “zero point” as it gets.
Who is it for?
For beekeepers who produce their own foundation or work with reliable wax-processing services. This block enables a true brood-chamber renewal without carrying over residues from previous years. Perfect for mating nucs or for a thorough sanitary reset when you need to return to genuinely clean wax.
It’s also excellent for cosmetic production: balms, creams, ointments. In these applications, purity is non-negotiable. With the QSI report, you can document ingredient quality for demanding customers.
Once melted, the difference is immediate: clean aroma, superior plasticity and foundation sheets that bees draw quickly and evenly. Contaminated or adulterated wax is rejected — they build burr comb and disrupt management. With this wax, they work smoothly.
Limited availability. Wax with this analytical purity is difficult to obtain and restocking is not guaranteed. For high-quality closed-cycle systems, this batch is a real opportunity.
Format: Solid block approx. 13 kg.
Includes: QSI analytical report.
