Wax processing

FROM OCTOBER 2025

Sterilised beeswax foundation made exclusively from your own wax.

What distinguishes our service from all other UK wax conversion services?

  • return of your own wax 100% guaranteed
  • batch processed – no mixing or cross contamination; fully traceable
  • sterilised foundation as standard – free of pathogens
  • any size, wired or unwired
  • large and small quantities can be processed on our state-of-the-art German-manufactured machinery
  • competitive pricing when compared to standard wax conversion services.

How it works:

  • Minimum order quantity 50 kg
  • You deliver or send your block wax to us with a completed order request; alternatively, we can collect your wax from you at one of the events which we attend.
  • We clarify your wax to remove remaining impurities. The clarified wax is sterilised by boiling for one hour at 130°C. This kills any pathogens present such as nosema and foulbrood spores.
  • The wax is cast in a continuous process on our fully automatic foundation machine before sheets are cut to the required size(s).
  • A small quantity of clarified and sterilised wax (2-4 kg) will be left over from the processing. This can either be returned to you with your order, or we can retain this residual wax as credit against the processing cost.
  • If required, stainless steel wire is embedded in the foundation sheets.
  • Your foundation is packed carefully in eco-friendly packaging.
  • You collect your foundation from us, or we send it to you by parcel or pallet carrier; alternatively you can collect your foundation from us at one of the beekeeping events which we attend.
  • Worker foundation only, cell size 5.4 mm.

Events at which we offer a collection/return service:

  • National Honey Show
  • The Beekeeping Show
  • BBKA Spring Convention
  • Bee Farmers’ Association (BFA) Regional and National Meetings.

We aim to process all orders with a quick turnaround.

If you are wanting to collect your foundation from us at an event, please plan ahead and allow plenty of time for processing.
