NIGP 01072: Mineral Wool: Blankets, Blocks, Boards

NIGP 01072 Mineral Wool: Blankets, Blocks, Boards is an Item code that covers thermal and acoustic insulation products in blanket, block, and board form for building envelope and mechanical system applications. State and local governments procure these materials for facility maintenance, renovation, and infrastructure projects—chiefly to insulate pipes, ducts, mechanical equipment, and building components. The code sees solicitation activity across state departments, county governments, and special-purpose districts, with recent opportunities reflecting renovation and replacement work on existing infrastructure rather than new construction.

Recent activity is sparse and geographically dispersed. The California Department of Motor Vehicles issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB 25-340) in February 2026 for chilled water pipe insulation replacement services at DMV Headquarters Building West in Sacramento, specifying one-inch-thick Dyplast insulation with aluminum jacketing on building valves and chilled water lines; the bid response deadline was March 18, 2026, with an estimated contract cost of $18,057.00 and a mandatory pre-bid conference on March 5, 2026. The source provides no other recent opportunities directly aligned with NIGP 01072. The Dry Gulch Irrigation Company procurement (NS272, due July 22, 2026) and the Sourcewell Law Enforcement Equipment RFP (#061626, due June 16, 2026) do not fall within this code's scope. The Williamson County notice (26OTHER73) is administrative relocation and does not represent a procurement opportunity. Without additional recent solicitations across other jurisdictions, characterization of geographic concentration or issuing-body mix is not supported by the source.
