What type of hive is this?

[marklaverda]

Hi All,
I went to the Tam O'Shanter Urban Farm - Farm in Wirral this weekend and in their apiary I saw a beehive I could not recognise.
Can anyone identify the beehive arrowed please? There was no one responsible for the bees on duty to ask.
Thx

Paradise honey, poly Langstroth.

I have that type.

The advantages I noted compared to other poly hives:
- a box can be assembled in 30 seconds without glue. It can be disassembled and reassembled if needed.
- The hard plastic frame runner covers the edge protecting the PS from the hive tool. (yellow on the picture)
- The boxes have groove and tongue on top and bottom, making impossible the water to leak in.
