UNSPSC 11181504: Tin oxide

Tin oxide is mainly used to make transparent conductive coatings for liquid crystal displays, flat panel displays, plasma displays, touch panels, electronic ink applications, organic light-emitting diodes, and solar cells, and antistatic coatings and EMI shieldings.

UNSPSC 11181504 Tin oxide is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it do not reflect tin oxide procurement — instead, they document steel plate supply and advanced metals recovery processing equipment and operations, which fall outside the code's nominal scope. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the underlying procurement records or that the code is being applied to tangentially related metalworking and materials-recovery activities. No relevant recent opportunities for tin oxide itself are present in the source.

DeKalb County, Georgia and the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County are the only two state and local bodies with recent postings attributed to this code. The Georgia opportunity (ITB 2026-082, due July 23, 2026) solicits hot-rolled steel plates for roadway projects under a three-year multiyear contract with a 20% Local Small Business Enterprise subcontractor participation requirement; the Florida opportunity (RFP 26-206, due July 16, 2026) seeks operations and maintenance services for an advanced metals recovery processing system at a landfill. The geographic spread is limited to Georgia and Florida, with no other jurisdictions represented in the recent record. Unless tin oxide procurement is a substantive and recurring activity at these or other state and local bodies that is simply mistagged in available records, this code shows little relevant market activity for business development purposes.
