Bottom Boards (Hive Floor) Including Runner and Risers

Alliance produces a natural product and beekeepers can decide how they wish to preserve their woodware after assembly. Our woodware is not waxed or painted leaving options open for beekeepers.

Alliance uses sustainably grown New Zealand Radiata pine know for its higher strength, straight grains and knot fee lumber.

Radiata pine is well suited for beekeeping because it offers longevity, greater stability and superior finish after machining making assembly effortless. It perform equally well in cold and warm weather.
