NIGP 85076: Table Linens

NIGP 85076 Table Linens is an Item code that covers linens and linen-related products for state and local government operations, including table linens, kitchen textiles, and linen rental services. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying tablecloths, cloth napkins, and related fabric goods for food service, event management, and institutional operations. The County of Orange, California Sheriff-Coroner's recent IFB for kitchen smallwares (posted October 16, 2026, due October 27, 2026) explicitly included navy blue tablecloths as part of a 86-line-item food service equipment and utensil procurement for jail facilities; separately, the Illinois Secretary of State's RFQ for organ donation program promotional items (posted May 18, 2026, due May 22, 2026, amended June 1, 2026) requested 10 to 12 navy blue tablecloths branded with the program logo. Issuing bodies range across county sheriffs' departments, state administrative offices, and special-purpose agencies; Yuma County, Arizona issued an RFB for linen rental services (posted August 13, 2026, due September 1, 2026) indicating that governments also procure linen through rental contracts rather than purchase alone.

Geographic activity under this code appears concentrated in the Southwest and Midwest, with documented recent solicitations in California, Arizona, and Illinois. The Orange County and Illinois Secretary of State opportunities represent the most detailed recent activity, both posted in mid-to-late 2026. The Orange County IFB enforces NSF approval for food-contact linens, requires delivery within 5–10 business days to a centralized warehouse in Anaheim, and runs a two-year fixed-price term with cooperative purchasing rights for subordinate governmental entities. The Illinois RFQ removed union printing requirements in a rebid round and requires FOB delivery to Springfield by August 15, 2026, with a contract term through June 30, 2026. Both solicitations mandate standard commercial general liability insurance ($1 million per occurrence / $2 million aggregate) and apply state certifications; the Orange County opportunity offers 5–8% local and DVBE preference deductions.
