NIGP 33585: Wetting Agents

NIGP 33585 Wetting Agents, an Item code, covers surfactant products and chemical additives that reduce surface tension in water and other liquids for use across state and local operations — including dust control on roads and athletic fields, soil penetration in landscape maintenance, cleaning and degreasing applications, and industrial process support. State and local governments procure wetting agents primarily through maintenance and operations departments at state transportation agencies, county road departments, municipalities, school districts, and special-purpose districts managing grounds and facilities. The products range from liquid concentrates requiring dilution to ready-to-use formulations, with specifications often tied to environmental compliance, biodegradability, and compatibility with existing equipment and water systems.

The source provided no recent state and local contract opportunities under NIGP 33585 Wetting Agents, indicating minimal current procurement activity at the state and local level visible in available databases.
