Warning Excavation In Progress Flag Tag (50pk)

BFT 004 297 x 210mm

Excavation zones shift daily, so this tag is designed to move with the work rather than sit fixed in one spot. The wording is direct and sized for visibility across open ground, cutting through the usual clutter of a dig site. Eyelets allow it to be tied off to barriers, stakes or temporary fencing without fuss.

Who is this for

The Warning Excavation In Progress Flag Tag is used by civil contractors, excavation supervisors, and safety officers to mark the boundary of active excavation areas on construction, civil, and utilities sites. Excavation zones present serious hazards including edge collapse, falling into the excavation, and contact with underground services, and clearly marked barriers with identifying information are a standard requirement under the WHS Regulations and principal contractor safety plans. The warning level colouring communicates a serious hazard that requires workers to stop and assess before approaching, and the permit and contact details recorded on the tag allow any worker approaching the zone to identify the responsible person and verify the status of the excavation before entry. The flag tag is strung on rope or barrier tape around the excavation perimeter and remains visible along the full barrier line.

Frequently asked questions
How do I attach a Flag Tag?

Flag Tags are designed to attach directly to rope, bunting or wire using the metal eyelet, so they can be tied, clipped or looped on wherever the warning needs to sit. This makes them quick to move if a hazard zone changes or the barrier line needs to be repositioned.
What are Flag Tags used for?

Flag Tags are attached to barrier rope, bunting or wire to communicate a specific warning or message at the point where it matters most, such as a safety barrier, scaffold, excavation or restricted zone. Each tag carries bold hazard wording along with fields for job specific details, so anyone approaching the area gets both the warning and the relevant contact information in one place.
Can I write on Flag Tags on site?

Yes, Flag Tags include space for details such as the hazard, permit or work order number, contact person, contact number and date erected, which can be filled in by hand once the tag is in place. This keeps the warning current and gives anyone on site a direct point of contact if they have questions about the hazard.
Can Flag Tags be custom printed?

Yes, Flag Tags can be custom printed with your own wording, hazard type or company branding if the standard range does not cover your specific requirement. Get in touch with the details of what you need and we can talk through the options.
What size are Flag Tags and what are they made from?

Flag Tags are A4 landscape and made from synthetic tearproof polypropylene, so they hold up to being handled, knocked and exposed to the weather without tearing like a paper tag would. Each tag has a metal 8mm eyelet for quick, secure attachment.
