UNSPSC 11121708: Wood flour

UNSPSC 11121708 Wood flour is a Commodity code covering engineered wood fiber, hardwood mulch, and related wood-based materials used for landscaping, playground surfacing, and grounds maintenance by state and local public bodies. The code sees activity primarily from school districts and special-purpose districts procuring these materials on blanket purchase-order or as-needed bases for campus and facility grounds work. Issuing bodies under this code are predominantly K-12 school districts placing incremental orders over twelve-month contract terms without guaranteed minimum purchase volumes.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the Upper Midwest and Mountain West. Parkway School District in Missouri posted an IFB for hardwood mulch and engineered wood fiber in September 2026 with a response deadline of September 17, 2026, estimating approximately $50,000 in annual spending on an as-needed basis. A second opportunity, Sourcewell RFP #061626 posted May 12, 2026, was a cooperative purchasing solicitation for law enforcement equipment with a June 16, 2026 deadline; this opportunity appears unrelated to wood flour and represents a miscoding or administrative mislabeling in the state and local opportunity record. Recent documented activity under this code is sparse, with the Parkway School District solicitation representing the clearest fit for the commodity's nominal scope.
