Frequently Asked Questions
Comb containers are food-safe cassettes and trays used to produce, package, and display honeycomb still in its original form, rather than extracted liquid honey. Dancing Bee Equipment carries the Hogg Halfcomb comb container system for in-hive production, plus a plastic comb container tray for packaging honeycomb you've cut yourself.
It's a complete comb container system for producing honeycomb for resale. The kit includes 40 crystal-clear plastic comb containers (cassettes) that fit into a shallow super, so bees draw comb and fill it with honey directly inside food-safe, ready-to-sell containers – no cutting or extra packaging needed after harvest.
Yes – the Hogg comb containers are designed to interlock in columns inside a shallow super, with springs and a suction cup helping hold everything in place and remove finished sections. If you don't already have a shallow super set up for the system, order the full kit rather than just the comb containers.
Yes. Hogg Halfcomb Honey Cassettes – the individual comb containers – are sold separately from the full kit, so once your system is set up you can restock comb containers each season without buying new springs or supers.
They secure the comb containers inside the super, sitting between the inside wall of the super and the follower board to keep the columns of cassettes tightly in place while bees fill them.
