A: Yes! It is built to the Australian Standard Full Depth dimensions, fitting standard 482mm x 232mm frames perfectly.
Q2: Why choose a wooden NUC box over a plastic one?
A: Wooden NUC boxes offer superior breathability and thermal insulation, which are critical for the survival of small, vulnerable nucleus colonies in variable climates.
Q3: Are the boxes shipped assembled or flat-packed?
