NIGP 65212: Baby Powder, Lotions, Oils and Creams

NIGP 65212 Baby Powder, Lotions, Oils And Creams, an Item code, covers personal hygiene and skincare products that state and local governments procure for institutional populations and general-population service delivery. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers are acquiring these products primarily for correctional facilities, detention centers, and other secure custodial settings where inmate or resident canteen operations require stocked supplies of commercial personal care items. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and county jail systems are the repeat buyers visible in current market activity, purchasing baby powder, lotions, oils, and creams as part of broader hygiene-product packages delivered through canteen or commissary operations serving incarcerated populations.

The code shows activity concentrated in California, where the CDCR issued a statewide two-year fixed contract (Solicitation 0000039891, due August 14, 2026) for personal care products across all correctional facilities and camp warehouses throughout the state, with delivery to inmate services canteens and inventory management across the CDCR system as core requirements. A second opportunity from an unspecified issuing body (Solicitation 7311, due October 9, 2026) sought hygiene products for "JJC residents"—likely a county jail or juvenile facility—though the notice posted October 7, 2026, provided minimal scope detail. Geographic spread and the diversity of issuing bodies remain limited in the visible recent pipeline; the CDCR contract represents the largest and most concrete procurement signal under this item code currently available.
