NIGP 64140: Multiwall Paper Bags, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 64140 Multiwall Paper Bags, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code under which state and local governments procure multiwall paper bags meeting environmental certification standards — products typically used for packaging aggregates, cement, flour, chemicals, and other bulk commodities in public works, school nutrition, facilities management, and waste-handling operations. The bags themselves are the primary commodity; certification requirements (such as recycled-content percentages or sustainable forestry compliance) are integral to the specification rather than ancillary. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments of transportation and public works, county facilities and purchasing offices, municipal public works departments, and independent school districts, though recent activity does not surface a single dominant repeat buyer.

No recent state and local contract opportunities appear in the available record for this Item code. Without posted RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, or ITBs naming NIGP 64140 or describing multiwall paper bag procurement with environmental certification language, the current market signal is minimal. Firms tracking this code should monitor cooperative purchasing catalogs and state-level term contracts — a common sourcing path for commodity packaging — and watch for seasonal uptick tied to school nutrition procurement cycles and public works material restocking, but should not expect near-term activity signals under this specific NIGP designation without broader market visibility.
