NIGP 19055: Hexane and Pentane

NIGP 19055 Hexane and Pentane, an Item code, covers the procurement of these light hydrocarbon solvents used across industrial, laboratory, and manufacturing applications by state and local public bodies. State and local governments source hexane and pentane primarily for use in extraction processes, cleaning operations, and as chemical feedstocks in facilities ranging from environmental testing laboratories to maintenance shops. The code attracts purchasing activity from state environmental and transportation departments, county maintenance operations, and municipal utility and public-works entities that require consistent supplies of these solvents for operational and compliance purposes.

The source provided contains no recent state and local contract opportunities under this code. Without posted solicitations, geographic concentration, issuing-body frequency, or representative RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notices to characterize, activity under NIGP 19055 cannot be assessed at this time.
