In 2007 the Wellington County Beekeepers organized the manufacture of these wraps and have made them available to Ontario Beekeepers each year since then, with proceeds supporting the OBA Tech-Transfer Research Program. 

These wraps are made of 4mm black polypropylene (corrugated plastic) with 5% U.V. protection. Polypropylene Copolymer is used for indoor and outdoor signs and packaging. They are lightweight and are designed to fold and store flat. Polypropylene has been tested to have little water absorption in 24 hours - .02% compared with 75% for (presumably unwaxed) cardboard in 50% relative humidity. It will withstand temperature extremes from -17F to 230F. Folds have a living hinge of 21,000 cycles.

Enjoyed adding to my hives. Traditionally never rap my single hives. Like the concept of an dead air space between wrap and hive, that heats up on sunny days. The bees appear to take advantage of this, as they utilize this warm air space,

My expectations were met. I like the fit, and being mouse resistant. Will store well, taking a minimum of space.
Tar paper is still the most cost effective, however, more time consuming to install and remove.

I am very concerned that rising prices of beekeeping will turn honey into a product only afforded by the well off.
