I've seen orange conduit (or what ever it is) for Telkom as well.
 
Vumatel use a number of different colour ducts.

IE, core duct may be pink, while access ducts may be black. Not sure of the exact config, but the colour is really just a 'nice to have'.

No standard really used.

And they use drainage type ducting to encase them in sections. They were close to breaking my existing fibre.

Below is a Telkom duct (green with blue lines through) which contains conduits. Libby Construction Installed this ONLY for Telkom, which makes me think that the (small) conduits are not color coded for a vendor, but the (bigger) ducts which contains the conduits might be...?
PS. I have also seen ORANGE ducts for Telkom. I also don't think the color is vendor specific, but it certainly does help to stick to one color, as to easily differentiate between them
