The quickest, most effective and cost-efficient system for

safeguarding buried cables

Safety and signage

Underground cable protection plate

  • Designed to provide mechanical shielding against potential threads and effectively signal the presence of the conduit it covers.
  • In case of intervention on the line, the vibration upon contact with the plate generates an audible warning, alerting operators to the presence of buried conduits. This indicates the direction and type of service involved, thereby preventing accidents and damage to the installation.
  • Vibrant color for effective signage across the entire plate, with an indelible legend printed in black.
  • Available in anonymous format or with your company’s logo. The standard model is yellow with a width of 25 cm, but it can be manufactured in other colors, widths, and thicknesses upon request.
  • The black text includes: brand, Electrical Hazard warning symbol, “Caution: Electrical Cables” labels, applicable standard, abbreviation of the construction material, and year of manufacture. Fully customizable in text, logo, width, thickness, and color.
  • It features a male-female joint system that allows continuous protection / signaling of the line.
  • Manufactured according to Spanish regulations RU0206B and International standards EN50520.
  • Made from recycled PE-HD, halogen-free, free of heavy metals, and UV stable.

Protection plate roll (25m)

  • Designed to provide mechanical protection and convenient signaling for the line beneath which the pipeline runs, guarding against possible damage.
  • In case of work carried out on this line, the vibration produced when contacting the plate generates a noise that warns the operator of the presence of an underground conduit. It informs about the direction of the pipeline and the type of service it carries, thus preventing accidents and damages to it.
  • Effective signaling with a vibrant color across the entire plate and an indelible legend printed in black.
  • Available in anonymous format or with your company’s logo, the standard color is yellow S0580-Y10R (UNE-48103), and the dimensions are 25x250mm. However, it can be manufactured in other colors, widths, and thicknesses upon request.
  • The black text includes: Brand, Electrical Hazard warning symbol, “CAUTION: ELECTRICAL CABLES” Labels, Applicable standard, Abbreviation of the construction material and Year of manufacture. Fully customizable in text, logo, width, thickness, and color.
  • It features a male-female joint system that allows continuous protection / signaling of the line.
  • Manufactured according to the International standard UNE EN 50520:2009.
  • Made from recycled PE-HD, halogen-free (UNE EN 21031-15:2008)
  • Free of heavy metals (Lead), Compliant with UNE EN 50267-2-2 (Acid gas emissions), and UV rays stable.

Signaling mesh for underground conduits

  • Designed to conveniently signal the line beneath which the underground conduit runs.
  • In case of intervention carried out on this line, it warns the operator of the existence of an underground pipeline, indicating its direction, and the type of service, thus avoiding accidents and personal injuries.
  • Available in widths of 20/30/40/50 cm and in colors associated with each type of service: Red for electricity, Yellow for gas, Blue for water, and Green for telecommunications, as well as other colors.
  • Resistant to water, chemicals, and microorganisms, it offers good resistance to aging and excellent flatness.
  • Compliant with Standard EN 12613.
  • Also available with a metallic wire (stainless steel) that allows surface detection using a locator.
  • Rolls of 100 MI.
  • Made from Polyethylene (PE) or Polypropylene (PP).
  • Custom text can be incorporated in its central band.

Underground warning tape

  • Designed to conveniently signal the line beneath which the underground conduit runs.
  • In case of intervention being carried out on this line, it warns the operator of the existence of an underground conduit and the type of service it carries, thus preventing accidents and personal injuries.
  • Available in widths of 15/20/30 cm and gauge in standard formats 300/400 (0,75/1 microns), suitable for all types of services: water, markers, telecommunications, electricity, gas, etc.
  • Customizable in any width, gauge (mm), and color. Alongside the message describing the type of service, the company’s logo can be printed (also available in anonymous format).
  • Also available with a metallic wire (copper) that allows its detection on the surface using a locator.
  • Made from Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE).
