UNSPSC 12161912: Sultaines

UNSPSC 12161912 Sultaines (Commodity) encompasses chemical products and treatment solutions that state and local governments procure for specialized facility operations and environmental management. Recent opportunities under this code show state and local buyers acquiring herbicides, aquatic vegetation management products, and wastewater treatment chemicals — materials used by corrections departments, water utilities, state transportation agencies, and municipalities to manage infrastructure, landscapes, and treatment systems. The issuing bodies span state departments, cities, and counties; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Washington State Department of Enterprise Services have posted multiple solicitations in recent weeks, while the City of Dallas is actively procuring chemical treatment services for its wastewater system.

Activity is concentrated in Texas and Washington.
