NIGP 36037: Recycled Floor Covering Products

NIGP 36037 Recycled Floor Covering Products, an Item code, encompasses floor preparation and refinishing services that state and local governments procure to maintain and upgrade facility flooring systems. Recent solicitations reveal the code captures competitive bidding for floor grinding, screening, and re-coating work — surface preparation and finishing operations that ready existing floors for new coatings or standalone refinishing. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal facilities management (the City of Pembroke Pines), school districts (Pinellas County School District and Seminole County School Board), and potentially other local government departments. The work demands specialized contractors with technical expertise in floor surface profiling, dust control, material selection, and adherence to building code standards; contractors typically must carry $1 million or higher general liability insurance and demonstrate proper material handling and storage capabilities.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, where three recent solicitations span early 2026. The City of Pembroke Pines in Broward County posted an IFB (solicitation PSPW26QQ01) for floor grinding at a 28,000-square-foot municipal building with a February 4, 2026 response date. Pinellas County School District issued an RFQ (25CD079) for gym floor screening and re-coating services with the same February 4, 2026 deadline, specifying Buckeye Reflections finishing products and requiring contractors within a 165-mile service radius. Seminole County School Board pursued a sole-source procurement (25260057STL) for J+J Flooring's Kinetex non-slip flooring district-wide, with an estimated annual expenditure of $800,000. None of these recent opportunities explicitly reference set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though Florida prevailing-wage, prompt-payment, and employment-verification compliance requirements apply across the sample.
