UNSPSC 13111013: Polyetheretherketone resin

UNSPSC 13111013 Polyetheretherketone resin, a Commodity code, actually maps to thermoplastic pavement marking materials and raw material feedstock for highway and street marking applications procured by state and local transportation and public works agencies. The recent solicitations under this code reflect active demand for thermoplastic marking compounds in granular or pelletized form, compounded to specified binder and glass-sphere compositions for application in molten state, rather than the narrow chemical-resin category the code name implies. Issuing bodies include city transportation departments (Phoenix, Dallas, Fort Worth, Savannah), county public works and road departments (Marion County, Florida; Bryan County, Georgia; Harris County, Texas; Fort Bend County, Texas; Santa Clara County, California), and special-purpose authorities managing subdivision and capital improvement programs. The City of Phoenix and Fort Bend County appear as repeat buyers of thermoplastic coating services on standing or on-call contracts. Scope encompasses both raw material procurement (the Phoenix IFB for thermoplastic pavement marking raw material in 50-pound meltable bags) and installation of finished thermoplastic striping, road markings, and raised pavement markers across urban streets, subdivision improvements, and local road networks.

Procurement activity concentrates in the Southwest and Southeast, with recent opportunities posted from Texas (Dallas, Harris County, Fort Bend County, Fort Worth), Arizona (Phoenix), Georgia (Bryan County, Savannah, South Fulton), Florida (Marion County), and California (Santa Clara County). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix's IFB 260348 (closed July 17, 2026) seeking thermoplastic pavement marking raw material—binder, reflective glass spheres, titanium dioxide, and fillers in specified composition ranges, with 50-pound pallet-unit delivery and five-year firm fixed pricing for the initial year; the City of Dallas's on-call paving contract CIZ26-TPW-4005 (bids due June 26, 2026) covering pavement markings and restoration across multiple work types; and the City of Fort Worth's 2026 On-Call Pavement Markings Contract (CPN 106517, bids due February 19, 2026) spanning 198 line items of thermoplastic, preformed thermoplastic, and multipolymer marking types with a $5,000,000 per-vendor maximum and 30 percent small business participation goal. Most contracts are structured as unit-price or on-call arrangements with annual or multi-year terms and no guarantee of work volume, issued on task-order or call-out basis as city and county departments direct. Prevailing wage requirements apply to public works thermoplastic installation work in California, Texas, and Georgia jurisdictions.
