NIGP 48578: Rug and Carpet Shampoo and Spot Remover (Including Deodorizers)

NIGP 48578 Rug and Carpet Shampoo and Spot Remover (Including Deodorizers), an Item code, covers consumable cleaning products and associated services that state and local governments procure to maintain carpeted spaces across facilities. Recent solicitations show school districts and municipal authorities buying carpet shampoos as line-item supplies within larger custodial-supply contracts, as well as standalone carpet cleaning and maintenance services bundled with shampooing and spot removal. The Eastern Municipal Water District's RFP for districtwide carpet cleaning services illustrates the scope: dry carpet cleaning, routine maintenance on monthly or quarterly schedules, chair cleaning, and emergency extraction services performed by commercial contractors using Green Seal or CRI Seal of Approval–compliant products. School districts including Cobb County School District in Georgia and Madison County Schools in Georgia are procuring carpet shampoo as part of broader consumable-supply bundles alongside detergents, disinfectants, trash bags, mops, and paper products for multi-facility operations. Issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and special-purpose districts (water authorities); no state-department solicitations appear in the recent record.
