UNSPSC 10161560: Capirona tree

Tree of the rubiaceae family. The capirona is a wild tree and is up to 30 m of height, characteristic of wet and tropical areas. It has several medicinal properties including its bark that is used as an infusion for eye infections, diabetes and ovaric ill

UNSPSC 10161560 Capirona tree, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities attributed to this code involve a mix of native tree species procurement and tree planting services that do not center on Capirona trees specifically. The Maryland Environmental Service issued an RFP in June 2026 for procurement, planting, and maintenance of up to 800 trees in the Baltimore metro area; the City of Tampa issued an RFQ in April 2026 for delivery of 500 native Florida trees across eight species (Seagrape, Florida Maple, Sand Live Oak, Dahoon Holly, Sand Pine, Red Mulberry, Chickasaw Plum, and Turkey Oak) to support the Mayor's Tree Giveaway program; and Hillsborough County issued an ITB in April 2026 for tree replanting of scenic roads totaling approximately 34,984 linear feet of median areas, estimated at $742,380.00 for one year. These procurements center on landscape installation and maintenance services—site preparation, soil amendment, planting, mulching, watering, and warranty periods—rather than Capirona trees as a distinct commodity. Issuing bodies are predominantly county and municipal governments in the Southeast and Midwest, with no standout repeat buyers in the available records.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Maryland, with isolated procurement from Oregon (ODOT tree management project in April 2026) and Nevada (Department of Wildlife seedling procurement in April 2026). The Florida opportunities—Tampa's tree giveaway (April 2026, due April 10), Palm Beach's palm tree furnishing and installation (April 2026, due May 29), and Hillsborough County's scenic road replanting (April 2026, due May 26)—show steady municipal appetite for native and ornamental species suited to subtropical climates, but none explicitly specify Capirona trees. The code shows little relevant recent activity narrowly targeted at Capirona procurement; state and local buyers are sourcing broad native species mixes or region-specific ornamentals rather than this specific tree type.
