UNSPSC 12161912: Sultaines

UNSPSC 12161912 Sultaines is a Commodity code that state and local governments are using to buy chemical additives and treatment products for water and wastewater infrastructure management, as well as vegetation management supplies. Recent solicitations show purchasing of ferrous iron salt and ferrous chloride for sewer odor and corrosion control, herbicides and adjuvants for vegetation management across highways and forestry areas, and unspecified chemicals for correctional facilities. Issuing bodies include state departments of criminal justice and enterprise services, municipal water utilities, and county or municipal transportation agencies. The code appears to serve a functional grouping across distinct chemical product lines rather than a single product category.

The most active recent posting is Washington State Department of Enterprise Services' RFP 12225RFP for Vegetation Management & Related Products (due August 20, 2026), which targets liquid and dry herbicides, aquatic herbicides, adjuvants, surfactants, and ornamental products for state agencies and municipalities, with historical annual spending ranging from $914,419 to $3.87 million and a four-year cumulative total of approximately $7.77 million. Texas Department of Criminal Justice posted two chemical solicitations (IW254710 due July 15, 2026, and IW254710A due July 29, 2026) with minimal scope detail. The City of Dallas solicited sewer odor and corrosion control services (BR2600030262, due June 26, 2026) with an estimated contract value of $10 million for a thirty-six-month term. Activity centers on Washington and Texas, with purchasing spread across state agencies, municipalities, and special districts. The Washington solicitation imposes Washington Small Business and Veteran-Owned Business set-asides for reserved awards and requires valid state pesticide dealer licenses and PCB-free product certifications.
