Polystyrene hives are quite common. I'm sure plasic frames exist but I haven't seen them in use.

- jmhobbs 5y agoI'd be surprised to find any commercial keepers using polystyrene. Migratory bee keeping is rough on equipment, and at scale I think woodenware still makes the most sense. I'm not in that community, but everything I see in Bee Culture and online looks like polystyrene is firmly in the hobbyist realm.
