UNSPSC 11101710: Cadmium

UNSPSC 11101710 Cadmium is a Commodity code that nominally covers the procurement of cadmium metal and cadmium-bearing materials. However, the recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code show little relevant activity aligned with cadmium procurement itself. The single opportunity substantively related to metals procurement—the City of Fort Worth's RFP for aluminum, iron, rebar, and steel (Solicitation 260222, due July 23, 2026)—does not reference cadmium and focuses on structural steel and related ferrous and non-ferrous materials for municipal construction and maintenance. The other two tagged opportunities (Sourcewell's law enforcement equipment cooperative procurement and the City of DeBary's park irrigation system upgrade) are unrelated to the code's stated scope. State and local procurement offices appear to have mislabeled these solicitations within the cadmium taxonomy, suggesting limited or no current demand for cadmium as a standalone commodity or material input under this code.

The geographic distribution of recent activity is sparse and geographically dispersed—Texas (Fort Worth), Florida (DeBary), and Minnesota (Sourcewell cooperative serving multiple states including Washington)—with no concentration pattern evident. The code shows no repeat buyers, dominant issuing-body types, or clear purchasing momentum in state and local contracting. Given the absence of substantive cadmium procurement opportunities in the recent record, this code presents minimal activity for business development pursuit at this time.
