Underground Warning Tape

Underground Warning Tape is a crucial safety tool used to identify and alert excavation crews about buried utility lines. These brightly colored, durable tapes are laid just above pipelines, electrical cables, telecom lines, or water mains during installation. They act as a visible early warning signal when digging operations are conducted, significantly reducing the risk of damage to underground assets. Available in both detectable and non-detectable versions, these tapes serve a wide range of applications across industries.

Prime Terratech Industries Pvt. Ltd. offers high-quality underground warning tapes designed for long-term underground performance, meeting stringent industry standards. Whether it’s marking a gas pipeline, an electric cable, or a fiber optic line, our warning tapes ensure safety, compliance, and operational efficiency in every infrastructure project.

Product Details

Underground Warning Tape is a non-adhesive, colored tape used in trenching and excavation works to warn of buried services below. It is installed above pipelines and cables to visually alert future excavation teams and prevent accidental strikes. The tape is made from durable polyethylene with long-lasting pigments and customized warning messages like “Caution – Electric Cable Below” or “Warning – Gas Pipeline Below”.

Available in detectable underground warning tape (with metallic components for locator detection) and non-detectable underground warning tapes (used where detection systems are not required), these tapes are designed for all types of soil and weather conditions.
