UNSPSC 11122002: Particleboard

A type of engineered wood product manufactured from wood particles, such as wood chips, sawmill shavings, or even saw dust, and a synthetic resin or other suitable binder, which is pressed and extruded. Particleboard is a type of fiberboard, a composite material, but it is made up of larger pieces of wood than medium-density fibreboard and hardboard.

UNSPSC 11122002 Particleboard, a Commodity code, shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement under its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code — Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline — is unrelated to particleboard or wood composite materials. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source or that the code does not align with current buying patterns in the state and local market. State and local agencies may procure particleboard through more generic wood products codes or as an embedded component in furniture or fixture solicitations rather than as a standalone commodity line item.

Without recent solicitations specifically for particleboard or particleboard-containing products under this code, no issuing-body mix, geographic concentration, or representative opportunity pattern can be characterized. Firms pursuing state and local procurement in wood composites should monitor broader materials and building supplies codes, cooperative purchasing agreements with Sourcewell and similar frameworks that may include particleboard as an option within larger category contracts, and direct outreach to facilities management offices in state departments and school districts that use particleboard in maintenance, renovation, or construction projects.
