NIGP 01070: Magnesia: Blocks, Sheets, etc.

NIGP 01070 Magnesia: Blocks, Sheets, Etc. is an Item code. State and local governments procure refractory magnesia products — blocks, sheets, and related forms — for industrial applications including furnace linings, kiln construction, and high-temperature containment systems. The code serves a narrow but specialized procurement base across industrial facilities, utilities, and manufacturing operations run by or contracted through state and local agencies. Issuing bodies include county purchasing departments and cooperative purchasing entities that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions and public sector organizations.

Recent state and local activity under this code is minimal. The most current notice from Williamson County Purchasing Department, posted July 14, 2026, is an administrative relocation announcement rather than a procurement opportunity and does not reflect active demand for magnesia products. No concrete recent solicitations for magnesia blocks or sheets appear in the available record, leaving the geographic distribution and current volume of procurement activity under this code unclear from recent state and local opportunities.
