UNSPSC 12142103: Ammonia

UNSPSC 12142103 Ammonia, a Commodity code, does not appear in the recent state and local procurement record. The opportunities posted under this code span welding materials and gases (acetylene, argon, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide), water treatment chemicals (liquid oxygen and carbon dioxide), medical gases (oxygen), industrial gases in multiple purities and applications, and hydrostatic testing services for cylinders. None of these solicitations specifically procure ammonia. The mismatch between the code's nominal product name and the work actually being solicited suggests that either the opportunities are miscoded in the source system, or ammonia procurement is not currently active in state and local markets. The substantive activity in the dataset centers on welding supplies, specialty and industrial gases, and related cylinder services — categories that fall outside the ammonia commodity scope.

State and local buyers posting under this code include community colleges in Texas (Collin College appears twice for welding materials, posted July 2026), county governments (Jackson County, Missouri, for welding gas supply; Sarasota County, Florida, for cylinder rental), transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority for welding and inert gases), municipalities (City of Wichita, Kansas; City of Orlando; City of Austin; City of Detroit; City of Dallas), a regional water district (Alameda County Water District, California), and a school district (Northside Independent School District, Texas). Most recent activity clusters in Texas and Florida, with representation in Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, and California. Representative recent opportunities include Collin College's three-year IFB for welding materials and supplies (FY2024-ITB-020, response deadline March 19, 2024, approximately $400,000 annually), Jackson County's 24-month supply contract for welding gas and supplies (Solicitation 26039, due July 14, 2026), and the City of Wichita's RFB for liquid carbon dioxide delivery to water treatment facilities (Solicitation 260081, due May 1, 2026). The State of Texas Comptroller's RFI process for a statewide industrial gases contract (Solicitation 304T-26-430M2, meeting March 25, 2026) represents the broadest geographic footprint, encompassing all 25 TxDOT Highway Districts across the state.
