NIGP 48610: Brooms, Brushes, and Handles, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 48610 Brooms, Brushes, and Handles, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code under which state and local governments procure cleaning supplies and janitorial consumables for facilities operations across school districts, transportation departments, county agencies, and fire rescue services. Recent solicitations show the code encompasses a broader range of janitorial and operational supplies than the title alone suggests—including brushes, brooms, mops, sanitizing products, trash and recycle containers, and related cleaning consumables purchased on an as-needed or contract basis. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, state transportation departments, school districts, and special-purpose agencies operating 24/7 facilities. California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and school districts in California and Florida appear as repeat buyers in recent postings.
