NIGP 48530: Deodorant Blocks, All Types

NIGP 48530 Deodorant Blocks, All Types is an Item code that captures deodorant blocks and related urinal and restroom odor-control products that state and local governments procure as part of broader custodial supply and restroom maintenance programs. The code sits within purchasing workflows for school districts, county facilities, municipalities, and other public bodies that manage custodial operations across multiple buildings. These products are typically bought as components of larger custodial supply contracts rather than as standalone line items, bundled with cleaning chemicals, paper products, and related restroom maintenance goods.

State and local school districts dominate recent activity under this code. Cobb County School District (Georgia) issued an IFB for custodial equipment with an estimated expenditure of $550,000 over the contract term, with proposals due September 23, 2026, covering supply and delivery to all district locations. Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas) solicited sealed bids through RFP 2026-071 for custodial supplies with a June 4, 2026 response deadline, noting that vendors must respond to maintain business continuity as the prior contract (RFP 2025-091) expires July 31, 2026. School district procurement drives the visible activity in this category, with Texas and Georgia showing recent solicitation volume.
