NIGP 652: Personal Hygiene and Grooming Equipment and Supplies

NIGP 652 Personal Hygiene and Grooming Equipment and Supplies, a Class code, encompasses consumable hygiene items and grooming products that state and local governments procure for institutional and public health operations—soap, shampoo, toothpaste, deodorant, feminine hygiene products, denture adhesive, moisturizing cream, and restroom sanitation supplies. Recent solicitations reveal this code spans correctional facilities' canteen resale programs, public health clinic contraceptives and hygiene kits, state police restroom services, school district custodial supply chains, and emergency-response hygiene services for disaster shelters. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, state police and sheriffs' offices, county health agencies, county detention facilities, school districts, and emergency management agencies. The Missouri Department of Corrections appears frequently as a repeat buyer across multiple product lines (toothpaste, facial moisturizing cream, warehouse hygiene items for canteen resale), typically issuing sealed bids with firm fixed pricing, domestic-product preferences, and service-disabled veteran or organizations-for-the-blind bonus incentives.

Geographic activity concentrates in Missouri, Massachusetts, California, Colorado, Oregon, Florida, and Arizona based on recent solicitations. Representative opportunities include the Fontana Unified School District (California) IFB for custodial supplies and equipment across 45 school sites, 79 line items, due August 10, 2026; the Missouri Department of Corrections canteen resale contract for warehouse hygiene items (toothpaste, body wash, soap, dish soap) due September 17, 2026; the Massachusetts Department of State Police RFR SP27-HYGIENE-X80 for sanitary and hygiene supplies and services at five restroom locations, small-business restricted, due August 21, 2026, with an estimated annual value of $11,000; the County of Orange Health Care Agency solicitation for contraceptives, hygiene products, and related items with a three-year contract value of $150,600, due June 1, 2026; and the Oregon Department of Human Services RFA for on-call emergency hygiene services (portable restrooms, hand wash stations, shower facilities, laundry, waste removal) with application deadline December 31, 2026. Correctional and detention facilities dominate volume; school districts and public health clinics represent secondary but steady demand with multi-year awards and firm-fixed pricing.
