Why it works

Why lay this warning mesh

Clear sewer pipe warning

Printed SEWER BELOW along the full length gives an unmistakable warning before anyone digs into a buried sewer main.

Detectable underground

An integral steel wire runs the length of the mesh, so it shows up on a standard cable and pipe locator even once buried.

Withstands the excavator bucket

Perforated mesh stays intact and visible if the ground is disturbed or lifted during later works, rather than tearing away.

Rot resistant

HDPE construction holds up underground long after burial, unlike paper or fabric alternatives.
Overview

Detectable Mesh (Sewer Pipe) 200mm x 100m - Overview

This is a red HDPE warning mesh printed "SEWER BELOW", laid above a buried sewer pipe during backfill. An integral steel wire runs through the mesh so it can be found with a standard locator, giving both a visual and a detectable warning before anyone digs into the pipe.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a detectable wire in this mesh?

Yes, an integral steel wire runs the length of the roll, so the buried route can be traced afterwards with a standard cable or pipe locator.

What's the advantage of mesh over flat warning tape here?

The perforated construction holds together better than flat tape if the ground above is later disturbed, staying visible rather than tearing into strips.

How deep should this be laid above the sewer pipe?

Lay it in the backfill above the pipe and below the finished surface, following your project specification or the water authority's own depth requirement.

Why does sewer marking mesh come in red?

Red is the standard colour used to mark sewer pipe routes. The same mesh is stocked in other colours for gas, electric, water and other buried services.

How much ground does one roll cover?

Each roll runs 100m at 200mm wide, enough for a long single run without joining rolls part-way.

What is the mesh itself made of?

Red HDPE mesh with an integral steel detectable wire, manufactured to resist rot during long-term burial.

Once it's dug up, can it go back in somewhere else?

No - it's a one-time warning marker meant to stay in place once laid, not to be lifted and relaid.
