    THE INVENTION

    SAFETY & CARE GUIDE

    It is important to understand some basic safety guidelines to ensure that your beekeeping experience is a safe and positive one.

    Check out this Flow sponsored safety pamphlet covering common beekeeping safety risks and first aid responses.

    Crafted with care, finished with character

    Every Scratch & Dent hive begins as premium western red cedar timber in our workshop. And if the timber doesn’t meet our strict QC standards, we repurpose it into fully functional Scratch & Dent hives instead of letting it go to waste.

    You may need to make a few small adjustments during assembly, but the result is a premium Flow Hive experience with extra character.

    Why repurposing matters at Flow

    We believe premium western red cedar deserves a second chance. By repurposing timber with cosmetic imperfections, we’re able to reduce waste, honour natural resources, and make the Flow experience more accessible to more beekeepers.

    Premium accessories for your apiary
    Included in Deluxe & Ultimate bundles

    Your beekeeping questions, answered

    Yes! All of the repurposed timber panels in the Scratch and Dent hive should be in useable condition but may require a little tinkering in the assembly process. In the unlikely event that you receive an item that cannot be utilised, reach out to our friendly support team.

    We recommend you paint or stain Western Red Cedar hives. As with most outdoor products exposed to the elements, it may require a refresh every 12-24 months depending on local conditions.

    Make sure to only paint the outside of the hive, leaving all the internal timber natural. This is important for the health and happiness of your bees. If you choose to limit the bees’ access to your roof cavity, this area can benefit from painting inside and out for extra weatherproofing.

    After painting, allow the hive to air in the sun for a few days to reduce the fumes before housing your bees.
