UNSPSC 12352143: Di-iso-propanolamine

Di-iso-propanolamine (DIPA) is a chemical compound with the molecular formula used as an emulsifier, stabilizer, and chemical intermediate.

UNSPSC 12352143 Di-iso-propanolamine (Commodity) encompasses chemical disinfectants and treatment agents that state and local governments procure for facility sanitization, water treatment, and industrial applications. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show active demand for hypochlorous acid generators and ready-to-use water treatment chemicals, reflecting growing adoption of on-demand disinfection and compliance-driven procurement for drinking water and wastewater systems. Issuing bodies include county commissions, municipal utilities, and special-purpose water authorities; Escambia County, Florida and the City of Flowery Branch, Georgia both appear as recent buyers in the past six months.

Activity is concentrated in the Southeast, particularly Florida and Georgia, where municipalities and counties are modernizing water treatment and facility sanitization infrastructure. Escambia County issued two distinct solicitations for hypochlorous acid generator systems—a sole source procurement (SSC2526004, due February 25, 2026) and a full RFP (PD2526083, due August 11, 2026)—each requiring EPA approval, on-site production capability, and 24/7 maintenance support. The City of Flowery Branch issued an IFB (26-007) due April 21, 2026 for a five-year supply contract covering seven water treatment chemicals including sodium hypochlorite (bleach) for both drinking water and wastewater treatment, with mandatory pre-bid attendance on March 24, 2026, firm pricing guarantees for the first year, and incumbent pricing baselines provided by current suppliers Brenntag Mid-South and R&M Water Solutions. The Flowery Branch wastewater plant expansion to 1.5 million gallons per day signals ongoing capital investment driving chemical supply demand. All drinking water treatment chemicals must meet NSF/ANSI/CAN 60 certification; bonding and insurance requirements apply for contracts exceeding $250,000.
