Our 12 Frame Poly Hive will be a valuable addition to your apiary offering the same high standard of innovative technology used in our 6 frame poly nucleus.
The Abelo 12 Frame National Poly Hive combines fully interlocking rebated components which protect against the elements ensuring unbeatable insulation for your bees.

Please note that the pictures are for illustration only and the hive comes with 1 brood box and 2 supers.

We will continue to manufacture all poly hive variants to ensure we provide beekeeping systems to suit all styles and management methods.

Our integrated plastic interlocking rebate system will help avoid damage caused by hive tools and ensure the products have an extensive working life. They also guard against the movement of the component parts during transit and inclement weather.

The Abelo 12 Frame Poly Hive offers the same host of features included in all the poly hives we manufacture such as high density, steam moulded polystyrene (160g/l), entrance blocks with brood boxes/supers, rot proof plastic floors and integrated plastic frame runners.
