UNSPSC 11161806: Twill weave synthetic fabric

A synthetic textile woven with a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs.

UNSPSC 11161806 Twill weave synthetic fabric is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure mesh and weave-pattern fabrics for operational and custodial use. The recent solicitation activity under this code centers on industrial-grade synthetic fabrics—particularly polyester mesh materials with specific weave patterns and durability specs—sourced by correctional facilities for durable goods production, including laundry bags and similar applications requiring strength and dimensional stability. Issuing bodies under this code include state correctional facilities and their procurement arms, which treat synthetic fabric procurement as a small-purchase or routine acquisition function.

The Illinois Department of Corrections, through Menard Correctional Center, posted a small-business-set-aside IFB (Solicitation 27426DOCMENARB53582) on August 12, 2026, requesting 40,000 yards of 60-inch white polyester mesh material meeting 4.5 ounces per square yard, 24-gauge raschel weave, and specified tensile strength; bids were due August 18, 2026, with all deliveries required by June 30, 2027. The solicitation required F.O.B. Destination pricing, $1,000,000 minimum general liability coverage, sample submission prior to award, and compliance with 33 Illinois State certifications. Geographic activity for this code appears concentrated in Illinois, with limited recent posting visibility beyond that jurisdiction.
