Product Information
Soil Markers are a reliable and effective solution for identifying any type of underground utility. Designed to serve as either a permanent or temporary marker, they clearly indicate the presence of buried infrastructure, helping to prevent damage during excavation or maintenance activities.
These low-profile markers are installed flush with the ground surface, making them an excellent choice for high-traffic or manicured areas such as parks, campuses, and residential zones.

- Compact the surrounding soil to ensure stability and prevent movement.
APWA Utility Color Code
To avoid confusion, the American Public Works Association (APWA) developed a Uniform Color Code used nationwide for utility markings. This standardized color system means that each color corresponds to a specific type of utility. Whether markings are paint, flags, or permanent posts, the colors stay consistent so everyone knows what buried lines are present.
