NIGP 19068: Oxidizing and Bleaching Agents

NIGP 19068 Oxidizing and Bleaching Agents, an Item code, covers oxidizing compounds and bleaching products that state and local governments procure for facility maintenance, laundry operations, water treatment, and industrial cleaning applications. The code encompasses sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, calcium hypochlorite, chlorine dioxide, and related oxidizing agents used across custodial, environmental, and operational programs. State departments of transportation, corrections, and public health; county facilities and maintenance operations; municipal public works and water utilities; school districts; and transit authorities all source these commodities for routine procurement through RFQ and IFB notices. Bleaching and oxidizing agents appear most frequently in janitorial supply solicitations bundled with broader cleaning-product categories, though water treatment and disinfection specifications occasionally isolate these products for specialized environmental or health applications.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities for this Item code; no issuing bodies, notice types, response dates, or geographic activity are documented in the available records.
