NIGP 41557: Recycled Laboratory Furniture (All Types)

NIGP 41557 Recycled Laboratory Furniture (All Types) is an Item code that encompasses classroom and institutional furniture sourced through state and local procurement channels. However, the recent solicitation activity under this code does not reflect procurement specifically for recycled laboratory furniture. Instead, the most recent opportunities show school districts and purchasing cooperatives sourcing classroom furniture and supplies through catalog discount models and cooperative purchasing agreements, with no explicit focus on recycled or laboratory-specific products. The issuing bodies include independent school districts (Klein ISD), regional education purchasing cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), and county governments pursuing general institutional moving and transport services that incidentally involve furniture handling and relocation.

Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative posted a significant RFP for Classroom Furniture & Supplies (CLSF2628) with a due date of May 26, 2026, and estimated total expenditures of $21,568,516.00 across a two-year contract term from June 18, 2026, through June 18, 2028, with 62 vendors previously awarded under the same bid category. Klein ISD issued an electronic proposal request for Furniture Classroom & Non-Classroom (Solicitation 26105) with a due date of August 14, 2026. Activity under this code concentrates in Texas, with a secondary procurement from Santa Clara County, California for moving and relocation services that includes furniture transport and reassembly. The cooperative purchasing model, particularly through Region 7's established vendor base, represents the primary vehicle for sustained activity in this commodity space, though recent postings do not isolate recycled or laboratory-grade products as procurement priorities.
