UNSPSC 11161803: Dobby weave synthetic fabrics

UNSPSC 11161803 Dobby weave synthetic fabrics (Commodity) describes textiles woven with dobby techniques in synthetic fiber blends — though recent state and local solicitations show the code applied loosely to shade structures and fabric-covered items that may or may not employ true dobby construction. The City of Dallas's March 2026 IFB for shade structures with fabric covering illustrates the primary recent activity: procurement of finished shade structures and outdoor fabric goods rather than bulk fabric rolls or yardage. State and local buyers under this code appear to be municipalities and city departments acquiring functional outdoor or facility-related textile products — structures, coverings, and assembled goods — rather than raw material for further manufacturing or fabrication.

The City of Dallas is the identified recent buyer. The solicitation (Solicitation #IFSPKRB2300024, posted March 10, 2026, response due March 17, 2026) is an IFB for purchase of shade structures and fabric-covered items for delivery to a Dallas municipal address. Vendors must submit online via the city's Bonfire portal, quote FOB delivery including all freight costs, provide proof of insurance, and offer a one-year unconditional warranty. The city reserves the right to reject any or all bids and applies no stated set-asides. No geographic concentration beyond this single Texas opportunity is evident in the source, and no other recent state or local solicitations under the code are reported.
