NIGP 48537: Detergent-Disinfectant (Washroom Type), Liquid and Aerosol (see Class 435 for Health Care and 505 for Laundry Type)

NIGP 48537 Detergent-Disinfectant (Washroom Type), Liquid and Aerosol, Item code, encompasses industrial-strength cleaning and sanitizing solutions that state and local governments procure for janitorial, food-service, and operational cleaning across facilities. Recent solicitations show purchasing of dishwasher detergents, sanitizers, rinse additives, pot and pan cleaners, and lime scale removers in both liquid and concentrate forms, as well as related janitorial supplies for washroom and general facility maintenance. School districts, county governments, and special-purpose authorities such as fire rescue and senior services represent the primary issuing bodies, with requirements ranging from routine consumable supply to facility-wide distribution contracts. Purchasing tends toward fixed-quantity annual or multi-year contracts with firm pricing and delivery-schedule specifications, reflecting high-volume, predictable demand across operating facilities.
