UNSPSC 13102021: Polyimide PI

UNSPSC 13102021 Polyimide PI, a Commodity code, describes thermoplastic pavement marking materials and related applicator equipment that state and local governments procure for road striping, lane markings, and pavement delineation on municipal and county roadways. The recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing both raw thermoplastic materials—compounded with binders, reflective glass spheres, titanium dioxide, and pigments for molten application—and finished application services including installation of thermoplastic striping, raised pavement markers, and associated markings. Issuing bodies include city transportation and street departments (Phoenix, Dallas, Fort Worth, Savannah, and South Fulton), county public works offices (Bryan County, Marion County, Harris County, Santa Clara County, and Fort Bend County), and municipal procurement divisions. Cities and counties solicit under this code with roughly equal frequency; no single jurisdiction has emerged as a repeat buyer across the recent sample.

Geographic activity spans Texas (Dallas, Fort Worth, Harris County, Fort Bend County), Florida (Marion County), Georgia (Bryan County, Savannah, South Fulton), California (Santa Clara County), and Arizona (Phoenix), indicating broad national distribution across the South, Southwest, and West. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix IFB 260348 for thermoplastic pavement marking raw material (thermoplastic reflectorized granules in 50-pound bags) with response due July 17, 2026; the City of Dallas on-call paving contract CIZ26-TPW-4005 encompassing pavement markings and striping as part of broader street work, bids due June 26, 2026; the County of Santa Clara ITB-PRC-FY26-0596 for thermoplastic striping, markings, and pavement marker installation services on an as-needed basis across county facilities, bids due May 18, 2026; and Fort Bend County IFB 26-038 for a term contract for thermoplastic traffic coating including grinding, primer application, and raised pavement marker installation with a February 24, 2026 deadline. Prevailing wage requirements and compliance with state highway standards apply across most procurements; bid bonds of 5–10 percent are standard, and contract terms typically run one year with renewal options.
