NIGP 48656: Floor Sweeping Compound and Oil, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 48656 Floor Sweeping Compound and Oil, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code under which state and local governments procure specialized floor maintenance materials and services for institutional facilities. In practice, the code captures gym floor refinishing work — specifically floor screening, preparation, and re-coating using manufacturer-specified water-based urethane products that meet low-VOC and environmental performance standards. School districts are the primary issuing bodies under this code, soliciting turnkey floor restoration services that include field measurement, material delivery, proper storage at controlled temperature and humidity, and application of certified finishing systems.

The Pinellas County School District in Florida has posted the most recent opportunities under this code: two postings for Gym Floor-Screening and Re-Coating (ITB 25CD079, response deadline February 4, 2026) requiring Florida-licensed contractors within a 165-mile radius to perform comprehensive floor refinishing at educational facilities using Buckeye Reflections Finishing products, specifically Buckeye Arena 300 Water-based Urethanes with 90+ gloss and low-VOC formulation. Contractors must meet stringent insurance requirements ($1,000,000 general liability, $300,000 automotive liability, and statutory workers' compensation), maintain secure material storage compliant with Florida Building Code State Requirements for Educational Facilities (SREF), and store materials at 55–80 degrees with regulated humidity. The District also gives consideration to prices established through State of Florida Department of Management Services cooperative purchasing contracts. Recent activity under this code is limited to school district procurement in Florida; broader geographic or issuing-body concentration is not evident from available opportunities.
