These materials include structural plastic lumber, composite boards, deck materials, and other non-wood construction supplies designed for various infrastructure and facilities projects. The materials are typically used in construction, facilities engineering, housing, base operations, and infrastructure maintenance across federal, state, and municipal government agencies.

Federal contract awards under PSC 5675 demonstrate a strong preference for sustainable, recycled material-based construction supplies, with most contracts awarded to small businesses like Black Rhino Recycling Inc. and R Interest LLC.

Many awards are set aside for small businesses, with a notable focus on woman-owned and veteran-owned small businesses. Delivery locations are predominantly at DLA distribution centers across the United States, with some international deliveries.
