UNSPSC 11151717 Gimped yarn is a Commodity code for a specialized textile product that sees minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The code covers gimped yarn — a yarn construction in which a core yarn is wrapped or bound with another yarn or thread, commonly used in decorative trim, embroidery, upholstery, and specialty textile applications. State and local governments procure gimped yarn primarily through facilities and maintenance departments for upholstery work, window treatments, and decorative finishes in public buildings, as well as through school districts and special-purpose districts managing custodial supplies and furnishings. The issuing bodies are typically county or municipal purchasing offices supporting facility operations rather than specialized textile procurement.

The source contains no posted state and local contract opportunities under this code. Without recent solicitations, the geographic spread and current procurement demand cannot be characterized from active market signals.
