NIGP 48555: Floor Stripper and Cleaners

NIGP 48555 Floor Stripper and Cleaners, an Item code, covers floor maintenance chemicals and compounds that state and local governments purchase for custodial and janitorial operations across facilities. Recent solicitations show this code encompasses both ready-to-use floor wax products and broader custodial supply portfolios that include stripping, waxing, and floor-maintenance chemicals. School districts and municipal agencies dominate the issuing-body mix, with Cobb County School District, Clayton County Public Schools, Northside Independent School District, and Madison County Board of Education among recent repeat buyers. The City of Fort Worth and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners also solicit under or adjacent to this code. State and local governments buy floor stripper and cleaners as consumable supplies on as-needed contract bases, typically bundled with broader janitorial-supply agreements or procured as standalone commodity purchases with annual or multi-year terms and renewal options.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Texas, and Florida. Clayton County Public Schools issued an IFB on May 21, 2026, for Spartan Millennia Bright Dura Gloss Laminate Floor Wax (2,500 five-gallon pails annually, estimated quantity basis, bids due July 8, 2026) under a one-year contract with two one-year renewal options and a 15 percent Small Local Business Enterprise contracting goal. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio posted RFP 2026-071 for custodial supplies on May 13, 2026 (proposals due June 4, 2026), replacing an expiring 2025 contract and requiring all incumbent vendors to re-propose to maintain supply continuity. Madison County Board of Education in Georgia solicited custodial supplies via RFP CSUP 05-26 (due June 2, 2026) across eight school facilities. Cobb County School District issued an IFB for custodial equipment on September 4, 2026 (bids due September 23, 2026, estimated $550,000 contract value). The City of Fort Worth's RFP 26-0243 for janitorial services at City Hall (due August 27, 2026) included hard-floor maintenance with stripping and waxing as part of a comprehensive service scope and applied a 30 percent Small Business participation goal.
