The Flugo half-hive box for 11 frames with a 39x17 cm frame size is made from monolithic polyurethane, ensuring exceptional strength and durability.

• External dimensions:
  • Height – 18.8 cm

Painting Instructions:

Polyurethane is not UV-resistant, so a protective coating is recommended after 1–2 years of sun exposure. Lightly sand the surface before painting to ensure better adhesion. A properly applied coating can protect the hive for up to 10 years without the need for repainting.

Potential Disadvantages:

Unpainted hive boxes may have a shorter lifespan and could peel over time. Minor air bubbles or imperfections from the manufacturing process do not affect the hive's functionality and are not considered defects.
