UNSPSC 13111010: Nylon

UNSPSC 13111010 Nylon is a Commodity code encompassing nylon fibers, fabrics, and finished textile goods procured by state and local agencies for institutional use. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' June 2026 IFB for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice illustrates the scope: nylon flags, nylon fabrics in assorted weights and colors, mesh bag fabric, and related synthetics destined for offender and employee clothing, institutional furnishings, and facility use across TDCJ sites. State procurement bodies issue these solicitations as competitive IFBs without set-asides, and the work involves supplying high-volume textile commodities to correctional institutions, facilities management operations, and other government warehouses. Respondents must source from domestic U.S.-based suppliers, submit certified laboratory testing reports (ASTM and AATCC standards), and meet firm fixed pricing with FOB Destination delivery included.

The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' IFB 304T-26-850A2 represents the primary recent activity under this code, with a bid deadline of July 28, 2026 and expected quantities ranging from 3,000 to 16 million units depending on product category. The solicitation covers 39 line items of nylon and synthetic textiles for TDCJ facilities in Gatesville, Huntsville, Lamesa, Abilene, and Dayton. Pricing must factor a 1.5% Texas SmartBuy administrative fee, and the initial contract term runs through May 31, 2027, with renewal options extending through 2030. Respondents must carry commercial general liability insurance of $500,000 per occurrence and submit certified test reports dated no earlier than 12 months prior to posting. No geographic spread beyond Texas is evident in recent opportunities for this code.
