Why it works

Why lay this warning tape

Highly visible

Bright yellow film with bold black print stands out clearly when a trench is opened, giving diggers immediate warning.

Detectable underground

An embedded tracer wire lets the tape be located with a standard cable or pipe locator before digging reaches the gas main.

Rot resistant

LDPE film resists rot and degradation underground, so the warning stays intact for the life of the buried gas main.

Colour-coded for gas

Yellow is the colour used across the utilities sector to mark buried gas pipe routes, so crews identify the service at a glance.

Frequently asked questions

Does this tape have a trace wire for detection?

Yes, this tape has an embedded tracer wire, so it can be located with a standard cable or pipe locator even once buried, unlike a standard non-detectable warning tape.

How deep should I bury it?

Lay it in the backfill above the gas main, before the final surface layer, so it's found before the pipe if the trench is reopened. Follow your project's or the gas utility's own depth specification.

What colour is this tape and why?

This roll is yellow, the colour used across the utilities sector for gas main routes. We also stock this tape in other colours for water, electric and other underground services.

How long is each roll?

Each roll is 100m long.

What is the tape made from?

LDPE (low-density polyethylene) film, 120 micron thick, with an embedded tracer wire running its length.

Is this tape reusable?

No, it's designed to be laid once in the backfill and stay buried as a permanent warning marker.

Will the print stay legible once buried?

The black print is set into the yellow film, so it stays legible even after years underground.
