Nuc Full Depth Flat Pack Corflute Pack of 30

NUC Full Depth Flat Pack Corflute Nuc Boxes

Discover the practical, efficient solution every beekeeper needs with our full depth flat-pack corflute nuc box set. Perfect for catching swarms, creating splits or nurturing small colonies, each box arrives flat-packed and ready for assembly, cutting down on storage space and setup time.

Durable corrugated plastic for all-weather resilience

Made from tough, lightweight corrugated plastic (the same polypropylene used for corflute signs), these corflute nuc boxes are built for outdoor conditions. Corflute doesn't absorb water, so it won't rot, swell or split the way timber can, and it wipes clean between colonies. Sun or sudden downpour, your colonies stay dry and secure.

Flat pack design for maximum convenience

Forget bulky assembled boxes taking up shed space. A whole stack stores flat in a fraction of the room, and each box folds into shape in minutes with no tools, glue or nails. Keep a few in the ute or shed so you're never without a flat pack nuc when a swarm turns up.

Sized for full depth frames

Each box holds standard full depth Langstroth frames, so frames move straight between the nuc and your main hives. Take a split, let it build up in the nuc, then transfer the frames into a full brood box once it outgrows the space. Frames and bees are not included.

Versatile functionality for all beekeeping needs

• Catching swarms: light enough to carry up a ladder, sealed enough to bring bees home safely
• Making splits: the right amount of space for a new colony to build up quickly
• Queen mating and holding: keep a spare queen with a small colony until she's needed
• Selling nucs: an economical box to send out with a colony
• Transporting bees: a compact box for moving colonies around the apiary

Add a splash of colour with randomly selected accessories

Each pack includes an assortment of coloured entrance and vent accessories, randomly selected. They personalise your hive setups and help you tell colonies apart at a glance.

Why choose these nuc boxes over others?

Unlike traditional wooden nuc boxes that are heavy and need painting, these lightweight corflute boxes bring easy handling and resilience to your apiary. They're best used as a staging box for short-term housing, so position them in the shade during hot weather and move a colony into a full hive once it fills the box.

What is a corflute nuc box?

A corflute nuc box is a small hive body made from corrugated polypropylene, the same material used for corflute signs. It houses a nucleus colony and is popular for catching swarms, making splits and transporting bees because it is lightweight, weather-resistant and folds flat for storage.

What frame size does this nuc box take?

It is built for standard full depth Langstroth frames, so frames can move straight between the nuc and your main brood boxes.

Does the box come assembled?

No. Each box arrives flat-packed and folds into shape in a few minutes. No tools, glue or nails are needed.

Are frames or bees included?

No. This listing is for the corflute nuc boxes and their coloured accessories only. Frames, foundation and bees are sold separately.

What are the coloured accessories?

Each pack includes an assortment of coloured entrance and vent accessories, randomly selected. Colours and styles may vary. They help you tell colonies apart at a glance during inspections.

Can I keep bees in a corflute nuc long term?

Corflute nucs are best used as short-term housing for splits, swarms, mating nucs or bees in transit. Once a colony fills the box, transfer the frames into a full brood box.

Is a corflute nuc box waterproof?

Yes. Corrugated plastic sheds rain and does not absorb moisture, so it will not rot, swell or split the way timber can.

How should I position the box in hot weather?

Corflute is lightweight and offers less insulation than timber or EPS, so place the box in a shaded, stable spot during hot Australian summers to keep the colony comfortable.

How long does a corflute nuc box last?

With reasonable care a box can be reused season after season. Wipe it clean between colonies, keep it out of direct sun when stored and avoid rough handling.

Can I use these boxes to sell nucs?

Yes. Because they are light and economical, corflute nucs are widely used to supply nucleus colonies to new beekeepers.

Do you ship Australia-wide?

Yes. Orders ship from our Sydney and Queensland stores to addresses across Australia. Shipping is calculated at checkout.
