UNSPSC 12352132: Triclosan

A potent wide spectrum antibacterial and antifungal agent. Used as an ingredient in many detergents, dish-washing liquids, soaps, deodorants, cosmetics, lotions, anti-microbial creams, various toothpastes, and an additive in various plastics and textiles.

UNSPSC 12352132 Triclosan, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under this classification. The three most recent solicitations—herbicide purchasing by the City of Philadelphia, a hypochlorous acid generator procurement by Escambia County, and sludge hauling services by the Brazos River Authority—fall outside the scope of triclosan, an antimicrobial chemical agent. The mismatch suggests either misclassification in the procurement systems or that triclosan procurement activity among state and local governments remains sparse enough that the code captures tangentially related chemical and sanitation products instead.

Geographic activity centers on Texas, Florida, and Pennsylvania based on the recent opportunities, though none directly involve triclosan. Issuing bodies include municipal governments (Philadelphia), county commissioners (Escambia County), and special-purpose water authorities (Brazos River Authority). The City of Philadelphia RFQ for herbicide (solicitation B2728201, due October 14, 2026) carries a maximum contract value of $45,000 annually and uses a requirements-contract structure. Escambia County's RFP for hypochlorous acid generator purchase and maintenance (PD2526083, due August 11, 2026) specifies production of on-demand disinfectant across county facilities with cybersecurity compliance. The Brazos River Authority's IFB for sludge hauling and liquid waste disposal (261394, due August 20, 2026) spans four wastewater plants with an estimated annual volume of approximately 15,040 tons of sludge. State and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevant recent signal for triclosan-specific suppliers.
