Our best-selling brood box, manufactured in your choice of sustainably sourced Australian Araucaria, or New Zealand Radiata.
Manufactured in the same style as those included with our Flow Hive 2, these sustainably sourced Australian Araucaria, or New Zealand Radiata brood boxes are manufactured in Langstroth deep 8 or 10 frame sizing.
They can be used for brood, or as an additional conventional honey super.
The brood box includes our unique V™ design which also doubles as a feature handle. 8 foundationless brood frames are also included for the bees to naturally build their brood comb. The brood frames are also built to accommodate wax and wire or plastic foundation if you wish.
Made in Australia or New Zealand from durable, sustainably sourced timber, these brood boxes are the ideal addition to any existing hive set-up.
This product is manufactured to the same specifications as the Flow Hive 2, and Flow Hive 2+ and is compatible with all individual components in this range.
Also designed to be compatible with Langstroth hives – please check specific dimensions here.
*Can be used in conjunction with our Flow Hive Classic collection, however, there is a minor sizing difference in the external timber width. More information here.
Our Flow Frames are slightly wider than traditional wooden brood frames, so less of them are required to fill the super in a hive in comparison to brood frames in the brood box.
– Our 8 Frame Brood Box is compatible with the 6 Frame Flow hive.
– Our 10 Frame Brood Box is compatible with the 7 Frame Flow hive.

It was easy to assemble and has great quality craftsmanship and hardware. I’m excited to move bees in May.
I loved buying the extra brood box! Has added that extra bit of space for my queen to lay! My parcel arrived in a timely manor and was beautifully presented in the box. Loving having the flow hive
We are new beekeepers and located in the hill country of Texas (Kerrville), and received our first nucs in April 24. Both our flow hive brood boxes are PACKED with bees and honey. One super remains completely empty and the other has bees walking all around in it. However our local beekeepers President says flow hives don’t work here because we don’t have the flower flow. My yard is flush with pollinator flowers and we’re 2 miles from the Guadeloupe river…. I’m determined to prove her wrong and share my success in 2025!
It has been extremely easy to use this product. The bees took to the new box immediately and it is powering along
Excellent process for expanding my first Main Flow Hive 2 Hope to excell a bigger harvest � Peter L
