UNSPSC 12352312: Potassium permanganate

UNSPSC 12352312 Potassium permanganate (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. Recent opportunities tagged to this Commodity code do not involve potassium permanganate; instead, they span unrelated maintenance and operational supplies including brake cleaner, de-icer, epoxy patch, grease, lubricating oil, and wastewater treatment polymers. The mismatch between the code classification and actual procurement content indicates that state and local solicitation tagging under this Commodity has diverged substantially from the chemical itself.

Activity is concentrated among Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority, which issued at least nine purchase orders between January and March 2026 for maintenance consumables (ice melt, de-icers, brake cleaner, lubricants, epoxy patch, grease), alongside standalone regional water utility and county transit procurements in Texas, Georgia, and Florida for wastewater and drinking water treatment chemicals. The recent records do not show procurement activity for potassium permanganate specifically. Opportunities posted under the code reflect short lead times—often two to seven days between posting and due date—and are structured as straightforward purchase orders through Bonfire registration portals with Net 30 payment terms and FOB Destination pricing requirements. The absence of labeled opportunities for potassium permanganate itself suggests the code is either unused or misapplied in current state and local procurement workflows.
