NIGP 85056: Mattress Pads

NIGP 85056 Mattress Pads, an Item code, covers residential and institutional mattresses and mattress components that state and local governments procure for university dormitories, public safety facilities, correctional institutions, and other operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing complete foam mattresses with fire-retardant specifications and construction requirements aligned to flammability standards (CFR 1632, CPSC 16 CFR 1633, California Technical Bulletin 129), as well as textile batting and fiberfill materials used in mattress manufacturing and institutional furnishings. The issuing bodies span university systems, county governments, and state procurement offices coordinating purchases for multiple institutions. The South Dakota Board of Regents, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts have posted recent solicitations under this code, representing a mix of higher-education, public-safety, and correctional-institution buyers.

Activity under the code is concentrated in Texas and South Dakota, with a Hillsborough County (Florida) procurement adding geographic breadth. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts posted IFB 304T-26-850A2 on June 18, 2026, requesting textiles, fibers, and piece goods including cotton batting and fiberfill for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, with bids due June 25, 2026; the scope spans 39 line items across multiple product categories and delivery locations in Gatesville, Huntsville, Lamesa, Abilene, and Dayton.
