Why it works
Why lay this warning mesh
Clear water pipe warning
Printed CAUTION - BURIED WATER PIPE along the full length gives an unmistakable warning before anyone digs into a buried water 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 (Water Pipe) 200mm x 100m - Overview
This is a blue HDPE warning mesh printed "CAUTION - BURIED WATER PIPE", laid above a buried water 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
Can this mesh be located once it's under the ground?
Can this mesh be located once it's under the ground?
Yes. An integral steel wire runs the length of the mesh, so a standard cable or pipe locator can trace it once it's buried, giving detection as well as a visual warning.
Is this the same as underground warning tape?
Is this the same as underground warning tape?
It does the same job as strip tape but the perforated mesh construction holds together better if the ground above is later disturbed, staying intact and visible instead of tearing.
How deep in the trench should it go?
How deep in the trench should it go?
Lay it in the backfill above the pipe and below the finished surface, so it's found before the pipe itself. Follow your project's or the water utility's own depth specification.
Why is it blue?
Why is it blue?
Blue is the standard colour for marking water pipe routes. We stock the same mesh in other colours for gas, electric, sewer and other underground services.
What length does each roll cover?
What length does each roll cover?
Each roll is 100m long and 200mm wide, enough to mark a substantial run of pipe from a single roll.
What's it made from?
What's it made from?
HDPE mesh with an integral steel detectable wire, rot resistant for long-term burial.
Can I dig it up and reuse it elsewhere?
Can I dig it up and reuse it elsewhere?
It's designed as a one-time warning marker meant to stay buried once laid, not to be lifted and reused.
