Underground Warning Tape & Marker Tape UK | Utility Safety | UK Tapes

Underground Warning Tapes from UK Tapes Ltd provide long-lasting, high-visibility protection for buried utility services. Manufactured in the UK from durable, non-PVC polyethylene, these marker tapes are designed to clearly identify and warn of underground cables, pipes and ducts for electricity, gas, water, telecoms and fibre-optic networks. Available in a full range of NJUG-compliant colours and printed warning messages, UK Tapes’ underground tapes resist acids, alkalis and soil degradation for 40+ years. Ideal for civil engineering, utility installation and construction projects, they ensure site safety, compliance and prevention of third-party damage to essential buried infrastructure.

The range includes:

TRENCHTAPE™
High quality, yet low cost, brightly-coloured plastic warning tapes that provide an instant warning of potential danger. Available in a wide range of standard pre-printed versions, although custom printed warning tapes can be quickly and economically produced

WAVEYWIRE™
Innovative detectable warning tape with twin tracer wires to allow location from above ground. The wavy pattern of the wires allows the tape to stretch by over 25% without breaking. A scuff-proof covering laminate protects the printing and increases durability of the detection tape

TILETAPE™
Heavy-duty warning tape made from 2.5mm thick recycled plastic. Supplied in 40M long rolls, TILETAPE offers a high degree of protection for buried utility lines

CABLETYLE™
High-impact resistant slabs of recycled plastic. These cable protection covers are supplied in one metre tiles and are marked for ELECTRIC CABLES, HIGH VOLTAGE CABLES or FIBRE OPTIC CABLES, although personalised wording is possible.
