UNSPSC 11181509: Artificial corundum

An artificial rock-forming mineral.

UNSPSC 11181509 Artificial corundum is a Commodity code that covers abrasive materials and grinding compounds used in municipal and county maintenance and construction operations. State and local governments procure artificial corundum primarily for road maintenance, surface preparation, and general wear applications where abrasive materials are integral to the work. The code sees activity from county governments and municipal public works departments that manage infrastructure, facilities, and grounds maintenance across their jurisdictions.

Recent opportunities under this code are sparse. The most actionable recent solicitation is Columbus Consolidated Government's RFB No. 26-0037 (posted May 14, 2026, bids due June 17, 2026) for stone and aggregates on an annual contract, which includes stone classifications and graded aggregate materials that overlap abrasive-material procurement patterns, though the scope emphasizes bulk materials for construction and road base rather than finely graded artificial corundum. A Cobb County, Georgia pest control services solicitation (posted June 12, 2026) and a Williamson County, Texas purchasing department relocation notice (posted July 14, 2026) are tagged under this code but do not reflect artificial corundum procurement activity. Georgia and Texas show recent tagged activity, though the relevance and frequency of artificial corundum solicitations under this code remains unclear from the current opportunity stream.
