Honey Tank Mellarius MaxiLine with Sloped Bottom and Sealing Lid

Do you want reliable equipment for honey extraction that you can truly depend on in beekeeping? The honey tank Mellarius MaxiLine is among the best-designed containers for honey storage and handling. It's designed to eliminate typical beekeepers' concerns – honey residues that remain on flat bottoms, and lids that don't seal properly during transport. Thanks to the sloped bottom toward the outlet and welded-on tap, you extract faster, without unnecessary tilting of the container, and utilize honey to the last drop.

Hygienic Design and Strength of Stainless Steel

The container is made from quality food-grade stainless steel with thickness of 0.8 to 1 mm. This thickness significantly increases durability during regular use – whether you're carrying the container full, washing it after extraction, or working with it in the apiary. Joints are made with plasma welding, which creates smooth welds without places where dirt or honey residues could get trapped and subsequently ferment. The polished surface also facilitates maintenance – it cleans quickly and remains hygienically safe for subsequent honey batches.

Sealing Lid for Safe Closure and Transport

MaxiLine excels in thoughtful closure design. The lid functions as a sealing lid with silicone gasket and securely fastens to the container body using sturdy hooks. In practice, this means two fundamental advantages: honey is well protected from ambient moisture (honey is hygroscopic), dust and pests, and simultaneously you can carry or transport the container without worry that the lid will slip off or contents will accidentally spill.

Details That Speed Up Work During Extraction

The construction is designed with beekeeper comfort in mind. Robust stainless steel handles facilitate handling even with a full container. A key element is the stainless steel tap directly welded to the container – this eliminates the risk of loosening lock nuts and minor leaks that you often encounter with cheaper containers with mounted valves. Around the outlet you get maximum strength, cleanliness and reliability with every extraction.

Compatibility and Recommended Accessories

Mellarius is designed as a modular system. For honey tanks you can purchase precisely fitting stainless steel strainers in three coarseness levels (coarse, fine, ultra fine) as well as conical strainers, with which you can easily use the container also as a settling tank. For convenient jar filling we recommend a stainless steel stand – it ensures sufficient height under the tap. For more precise honey dosing you can also choose a gate valve.
