Frequently Asked Questions

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT BREAT HONEYCOMBS

🐝 What are BREAT honeycombs made of?

They are made of 100% natural beeswax, with no chemicals, additives, or artificial ingredients. The same substance bees produce naturally — just processed mechanically into perfect hexagonal structures.

🔧 Do I need a special frame or hive to use them?

No. Our combs are compatible with standard beekeeping frames such as:

• Langstroth
• Dadant
• Layens

We also offer custom sizing upon request to fit specific regional hive formats.

🧲 How do I attach the honeycomb to the frame?

You have two easy options:

• Nail it directly along the edges of the frame using small tacks.
• Use metal wire across the frame for traditional support — same method used with wax foundations.

🌡️ Can they be used in brood chambers?

Yes. The combs are perfectly suitable for both brood and honey storage. They offer clean, uniform conditions ideal for brood rearing and cell hygiene.

🔁 Are the combs reusable?

Yes, if maintained properly and not overly used for brood cycles, the combs can last across multiple seasons. However, for optimal hive hygiene, we recommend regular renewal — now easier than ever thanks to BREAT.

🌿 How are these better than traditional wax foundations?

• No chemical residues
• No loss of honey in wax production
.
• Perfectly formed cells, increasing bee acceptance and productivity
• More honey, faster, as bees skip wax-building and focus on nectar gathering

🧪 Are the combs tested and certified?

Yes. Our wax and process are:

• With 100% natural beeswax, whose purity is guaranteed thanks to its origin from identified and controlled bee farms.
• Free from contaminants such as paraffin or industrial waxes
• Produced under a fully patented, traceable system with strict quality control
