Benefits of Detectable Mesh

  • Our detectable mesh wholesale for utility companies provides multiple advantages:
  • Enhanced safety: Reduces the risk of damaging underground utilities during excavation.
  • High visibility: The high visibility detectable mesh for excavation safety ensures workers can easily identify utilities.
  • Integrated detection: Designed for easy detection using cable avoidance tools (CAT/Genny).
  • Custom solutions: Available as custom detectable mesh for infrastructure, tailored to meet specific project requirements.
  • Versatile Use: Widely used in highways, telecom, energy, and residential construction projects, supporting safety protocols and compliance with industry standards.
  • Colour-Coded Visibility: Easily identifiable colours guide workers during trenching and reinstatement, ensuring safe excavation practices.
  • Easy Installation: Simply place the mesh 150-300mm above the service line in trench backfill. The 100m roll format covers large areas quickly, with a 200mm width for full trench coverage.
  • Durable Construction: Made from high-quality polyethylene, the mesh resists wear and degradation across various soil conditions.

Applications

  1. The Blue Detectable Warning Mesh is specifically designed for marking buried water pipes. It helps quickly identify their location, saving time and preventing accidental damage during excavation.
  2. The Red Detectable Warning Mesh is ideal for marking sewer and fuel pipes underground. It ensures these critical utilities are easily detected and protected during construction or digging.
  3. The Green Detectable Warning Mesh is commonly used to locate buried fiber optic and telephone cables. It provides a reliable warning to prevent disruption to these vital communication lines.
  4. The Yellow Detectable Warning Mesh is used to mark electric cables, gas lines, and streetlight cables. This mesh acts as a safety barrier, minimizing the risk of accidental damage to essential infrastructure during excavation.
