Why it works
Why lay this warning tape
Highly visible
Bright green 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 rising main.
Rot resistant
LDPE film resists rot and degradation underground, so the warning stays intact for the life of the buried rising main.
Colour-coded for rising mains
Green tape marks this as a rising main route, helping crews tell it apart from tape laid over other buried services on site.
Overview
Detectable Underground Tape (Rising Main) 150mm x 100m - Overview
This is a green detectable underground tape printed "CAUTION RISING MAIN", laid above a buried rising main during backfill to warn anyone digging later, with an embedded tracer wire so it can also be located with a cable or pipe locator.

Frequently asked questions
Does this tape include a tracer wire?
Does this tape include a tracer wire?
Yes - a fine wire runs the length of the roll, embedded in the film, so the buried tape can be picked up with a cable or pipe locator, not just found by digging down to it.
At what depth do I lay it?
At what depth do I lay it?
Lay it in the backfill above the rising main, below the final surface layer, so it's the first thing found if the trench is ever reopened. Depth should follow your project spec or the utility's own requirement.
Why is this roll green?
Why is this roll green?
Green marks this tape out as a rising main route on site. We stock the same tape in other colours for gas, electric and other buried services, so crews can tell routes apart at a glance.
How much tape is on a roll?
How much tape is on a roll?
Each roll runs 100m, 150mm wide.
What's the tape made of?
What's the tape made of?
LDPE film, 120 micron thick, with the tracer wire embedded through the print.
Can I reuse a roll once it's been laid?
Can I reuse a roll once it's been laid?
No - it's a one-time install, meant to stay buried permanently as a warning marker above the pipe.
Will the print survive years underground?
Will the print survive years underground?
Yes - the black print is set into the film itself rather than sitting on the surface, so it won't rub or wash off once buried.
