NIGP 06: Clothing, Textiles, Laundry Equipment, and Supplies

NIGP 06 Clothing, Textiles, Laundry Equipment, And Supplies is a Category code covering apparel, fabric, and laundry operations that state and local governments purchase for employee uniforms, protective wear, institutional textiles, and cleaning-service infrastructure. The category rolls up purchasing across apparel for law enforcement, fire, public works, and administrative staff; specialized protective clothing for hazardous-duty roles; bulk textiles for schools, correctional facilities, and healthcare settings; and laundry equipment ranging from commercial washers to dry-cleaning machinery. Issuing bodies span state departments, counties, municipalities, school districts, and special-purpose authorities such as transit and correctional agencies. Activity under this code reflects both ongoing operational needs—uniform replenishment, linen services for detention facilities and hospitals—and capital purchases of laundry plant.
