UNSPSC 11150000: Fibers and threads and yarns

UNSPSC 11150000 Fibers and threads and yarns (Family) encompasses threading materials, embroidery supplies, and related textile inputs that state and local governments procure for internal operations and specialized programs. The code shows recent activity centered on embroidery shop support and MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) supply catalogs that bundle fibers, threads, and yarns alongside dozens of other commodity categories. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state departments (Rhode Island Department of Corrections, New Hampshire), county governments (Solano County), and municipalities (Tucson, Owensboro, Palm Bay). The work being bought ranges from dedicated embroidery-shop material procurement to incidental fiber and thread line items embedded in broad MRO master agreements serving multiple departments and locations.

The code shows recent activity primarily in Arizona, Florida, Kentucky, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island. The Rhode Island Department of Corrections issued an RFQ (RFQ26006645) due June 11, 2026 for threading and embroidery materials to support the department's embroidery shop, with a three-year initial term and up to two additional 12-month renewal options, including a 15% minimum MBE participation requirement. The State of New Hampshire posted Bid 1-27 due July 23, 2026 for embroidery and table equipment, with Addendum 1 issued July 8, 2026 modifying specifications and submission procedures. The City of Tucson's broad MRO RFP #240078 (due March 28, 2024) included fibers and threads among over 1,995 line items across 25 product categories under a three-year master agreement with potential two-year extensions. No recent activity in this code at the state or local level shows significant dollar volume or procurement frequency concentrated in a single jurisdiction; the code remains a secondary or embedded buy within larger operational-supply or specialized-program procurement.
