Small cell foundation wax

[MeeeMz]

Good day
I'm raising Apis mellifera yemenitica and they're smaller than the other species i'm raising,italians. I was hoping to find wax foundations with small cells, something smaller than 4.9.
Does anyone know where i can find those online, or if they're a company that custom makes them.

Thanks

As far as I know, the smallest foundation offered by anyone is 4.9mm:).

Why use foundation at all??

Max Hamby has some foundation from China, which seems to be what they are using. It's plastic 4.6mm.
