This Buried Communications Cable Marker Tape is designed to provide a clear visual warning of underground communication services during excavation and maintenance works. Installed above buried communication cables, it helps prevent accidental damage, improves site safety, and supports best practice utility identification.
Manufactured from heavy duty, detectable polyethylene, the tape is suitable for long term underground installation. The white colour and clear “Buried Communications Cable Below” message ensure easy identification when uncovered, alerting workers before reaching the service. The tape is environmentally friendly, non toxic, and lead free.
