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

Clear pipe identification

Printed CAUTION SEWERAGE PUMPING MAIN BELOW along the full length leaves no doubt about what lies beneath.

Marked for wastewater services

Red identifies this route as a sewerage pumping main, so crews can identify the service at a glance.

Frequently asked questions

What is a sewerage pumping main, and why does it get its own tape?

A pumping main (or rising main) carries sewage under pressure from a pumping station rather than by gravity. Marking its route with tape printed specifically for pumping mains tells anyone digging nearby that this is a pressurised pipe, not a standard gravity sewer.

Does this tape include a trace wire for locating the main?

No, this is a printed warning tape without a metal trace element, so it will not register on a cable or pipe locator. Ask us about our detectable underground tape range if you need that.

How deep should this be laid above the pumping main?

Lay it in the backfill above the pipe, below the final surface layer, so it's the first thing found if the trench is reopened. Follow your project's or the water authority's own depth specification.

Why is this tape red rather than blue?

Red is used here to mark this route specifically as a sewerage pumping main, distinguishing it from the blue tape we supply for surface water and fresh water pipe routes.

How long is each roll?

Each roll is 365m, enough to mark most pumping main runs from a single length without needing to join rolls.

What is the tape made from?

LDPE (low-density polyethylene) film - a durable, flexible plastic tape rather than a fabric or foil.

Can this tape be reused once lifted?

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