UNSPSC 11162132: Damask fabric

A reversible figured fabric of silk, wool, linen, cotton, or synthetic fibers with a pattern formed by weaving

UNSPSC 11162132 Damask fabric is a Commodity code that covers specialty textile procurement by state and local agencies, though recent activity shows state correctional facilities sourcing technical mesh materials rather than traditional damask weaves. The code captures fabric procurement for institutional applications, including laundry and operational textile needs within state-operated facilities. Issuing bodies under this code include state correctional departments and other institutional agencies managing operational supply chains with technical material specifications.

Recent activity centers on Illinois, where the Illinois Department of Corrections' Menard Correctional Center posted an IFB (solicitation 27426DOCMENARB53582) on August 12, 2026 for 40,000 yards of 60-inch white mesh material—a raschel weave polyester fabric at 4.5 ounces per square yard for fiscal year 2027 laundry bags, with response due August 18, 2026. The procurement was issued under a small business set-aside, required bidders to submit one-yard samples for approval, and specified all deliveries to occur by June 30, 2027 at the facility's warehouse dock. Vendors were required to maintain $1,000,000 per occurrence commercial liability coverage and $1,000,000 per occurrence auto liability coverage, comply with 33 Illinois State certifications, and accept F.O.B. Destination pricing with all transportation costs included in their bid. This represents the sole recent opportunity identified under the code, suggesting limited current procurement activity in this commodity category at the state and local level.
