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.
Clear pipe identification
Printed CAUTION GAS PIPE BELOW along the full length leaves no doubt about what lies beneath.
Industry-standard colour
Yellow is the colour used across the gas industry to mark buried gas pipe routes, so crews can identify the service at a glance.
Full-length roll
Each roll runs 365m, enough to mark long pipe runs without joining multiple rolls together, cutting material waste on site.

Frequently asked questions
Does this tape include a trace wire, or is it a plain warning tape?
Does this tape include a trace wire, or is it a plain warning tape?
This is a plain warning tape with no built-in trace wire. If you need a tape a cable and pipe locator can detect, ask us about our Detectable Underground Tape (Gas Main) range instead.
Why is gas pipe warning tape yellow?
Why is gas pipe warning tape yellow?
Yellow is the standard colour used across the UK gas industry to mark buried gas pipe routes, in the same way blue marks water and green marks communications. This roll is printed CAUTION GAS PIPE BELOW to match.
How deep should this be laid above the pipe?
How deep should this be laid above the pipe?
Lay it in the backfill above the pipe, before the final surface layer, so it's the first thing found if the trench is reopened. Follow your project's or the gas utility's own depth specification.
What should I do if I uncover this tape while digging?
What should I do if I uncover this tape while digging?
Stop hand-digging in that area and check exactly where the pipe runs before continuing - the tape means a gas pipe is close by. Follow your site's permit-to-dig and safe digging procedures.
How long is each roll, and will I need to join rolls together?
How long is each roll, and will I need to join rolls together?
Each roll is 365m long, so most trench runs can be marked from a single roll without a join.
What is the tape made from?
What is the tape made from?
LDPE (low-density polyethylene) film - a light, flexible plastic tape rather than a fabric or foil.
Is this tape reusable once dug up?
Is this tape reusable once dug up?
No, it's designed to be laid once in the backfill and stay buried as a permanent warning marker.
