UNSPSC 12162305: Concrete additive

Type of additive promoting impermeability in the blends of mortars and concretes.

UNSPSC 12162305 Concrete additive is a Commodity code that covers chemical additives mixed into concrete to modify performance characteristics—accelerators, fibers, air-entrainment agents, and similar materials—but state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent concrete-additive-specific solicitations. Instead, the recent opportunities tagged with this code predominantly reflect ready-mix concrete delivery contracts, concrete construction services, and concrete pad installation projects across municipalities, counties, and special districts. The issuing bodies span city public works departments (Jackson, Plant City, Bradenton, Palo Alto, Owensboro), county highway and roads divisions (Volusia, Portage, Deschutes, Pasco), school districts (Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District), municipal water districts (West Basin Municipal Water District), and fire departments (Santa Cruz), with no single jurisdiction appearing more than once. The work actually being solicited includes ready-mix concrete delivery on as-needed or term-contract bases, concrete sidewalk and curb installation, concrete pad construction for fire apparatus, ADA-compliant pedestrian infrastructure, and water-treatment filter rehabilitation using concrete and grout components.

Geographic spread includes California (Santa Cruz, Palo Alto, West Basin, Ventura County), Florida (Plant City, Bradenton, Orange County, Pasco County, Sarasota County, Volusia County), Texas (Jackson, Harlingen), Georgia (Fairburn, Rockdale County), Connecticut (Waterford, Norwalk), Wisconsin (Portage County), Oregon (Deschutes County), Kentucky (Owensboro), and Arizona (Williamson County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Jackson Department of Public Works issuing an RFP for ready-mix concrete continuous delivery services with response due June 18, 2026; the City of Plant City issuing an IFB for ready-mix concrete services on an as-needed basis with responses due July 9, 2026; Orange County, Florida issuing an invitation to bid for ADA Pedestrian Safety Improvement Program construction services (estimated $6,255,475) with sealed bids due May 7, 2026; and the County of Volusia Department of Road and Bridge issuing an ITB for ready-mix concrete products in multiple grades and specifications with electronic responses due April 23, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. Most opportunities are IFBs or ITBs for bulk material supply rather than additive components, suggesting the code may be overtagged or used as a proxy for broader concrete procurement categories.
