UNSPSC 11111806: Mullite

UNSPSC 11111806 Mullite, a Commodity code, represents refractory and advanced ceramic materials used in high-temperature industrial applications. State and local governments procure mullite primarily through cooperative purchasing vehicles and regional procurement consortia rather than as direct end-user purchases; recent solicitation activity shows mullite specifications appearing in broader law enforcement and industrial equipment requests rather than as a standalone commodity line item. Issuing bodies under this code span state cooperative purchasing units (such as Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit), regional counties, and municipal departments. The code sees limited standalone activity in recent state and local procurement records, with mullite specifications typically embedded in equipment or material assemblies rather than procured as a primary commodity.

The source shows one substantive recent opportunity: Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on May 12, 2026, with response due June 16, 2026, directed at multiple Washington and regional counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima. This cooperative procurement framework extends to thousands of governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, and public entities across the United States and Canada. However, the solicitation does not explicitly identify mullite as a component specification, and the recent-opportunities block contains no additional evidence of direct mullite procurement at the state or local level. A Williamson County Purchasing Department relocation notice (July 2026) appears in the same search results but does not constitute a procurement opportunity. Geographic activity is concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Minnesota, where cooperative purchasing frameworks dominate, but substantive mullite-specific demand signals in current state and local solicitations are absent.
