UNSPSC 13101708: Silicone VMQ and PMQ and PVMQ

UNSPSC 13101708 Silicone VMQ and PMQ and PVMQ is a Commodity code encompassing specialty elastomer sealants and compounds used in highway, pavement, and airfield applications, most visibly in joint sealing, crack repair, and deck protection systems on transportation infrastructure. State and local governments buy these materials primarily as components in pavement maintenance, bridge repair, and runway/taxiway rehabilitation contracts—not as standalone commodities. The State of Maine Department of Administrative and Financial Services is procuring deck sealants and epoxy polymer concrete products in various container sizes for statewide use; Texas Department of Transportation is sourcing Sikasil 728 RCS silicone sealant in 40 oz sausage kits for bridge joint applications; and the Illinois Department of Transportation District 5 issued an emergency small purchase for hot poured joint sealant. State departments of transportation, county highway departments, and airport operators are the primary issuing bodies, along with school districts and universities when performing facility renovation work that includes sealant applications.

The code sees consistent activity in three geographic regions. Texas shows the highest density of recent solicitations, including active procurement by the State of Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and Collin County for pavement materials and joint sealants. Illinois and Georgia generate steady activity at the state transportation level and in county/city pavement rehabilitation projects. Wisconsin and California counties are also active, with Dane County procuring hot pour sealants and Santa Clara County managing guardrail and pavement projects with sealant components. Representative recent opportunities include the State of Maine RFQ 17A26041300000000000259 (posted July 1, 2026, due July 15, 2026) for deck sealant systems and epoxy polymer concrete products on a master agreement basis; TxDOT solicitation 601340000066332 (posted June 26, 2026) for Sikasil 728 RCS silicone sealant in bridge applications; and the Illinois Department of Transportation District 5 emergency procurement 26494DOTFINADB52653 (posted June 5, 2026, due June 10, 2026) for hot poured joint sealant. State-level master agreements and cooperative purchasing vehicles are common award structures, with contract terms typically one to five years and estimated annual volumes ranging from several hundred gallons to tens of thousands of gallons depending on the jurisdiction's road network and maintenance intensity.
