Why it works

Why lay this warning tape

Highly visible

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

Clear pipe identification

Printed CAUTION WATER PIPE BELOW along the full length leaves no doubt about what lies beneath.

Colour-coded for water

Blue is the colour used across the utilities sector to identify water 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.

Frequently asked questions

Does this tape have a metal trace wire for detection?

No, this is a standard warning tape without a built-in detection wire. If you need a tape that shows up on a cable or pipe locator, ask us about our detectable underground tape range instead.

How deep should I bury it?

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 utility's own depth specification.

What colour is this tape and why?

This roll is blue, which matches the colour used across the water industry to identify water pipe routes. We also stock this tape in other colours for gas, electric and other underground services.

How long is each roll and can I join two 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?

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

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 blue film rather than a surface label, so it stays legible even after being underground.
