UNSPSC 14111609: Cover paper

UNSPSC 14111609 Cover paper, a Commodity code, encompasses specialty paper stocks and colored office papers that state and local governments procure for classroom, administrative, and specialized printing applications. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing cover stock in multiple weights (65–67#), colored copy paper in branded varieties (Astrobrights, Eagle Color, Pacon), parchment, and archival photo paper. The issuing-body mix includes school district cooperative purchasing organizations and municipal procurement offices. The Cooperative Purchasing Agency (CPA), a Georgia-based warehouse serving 35 school systems, regularly solicits cover stock and colored paper supplies; individual municipalities like Philadelphia also pursue specialty papers for departmental use through micro purchase channels.

Activity is concentrated in Georgia and Pennsylvania based on recent opportunities. The CPA posted a bid for copy paper, colored paper, and cover stock supplies (Bid #2027-009) on August 10, 2026, with a September 10, 2026 response deadline, seeking 39 line items ranging from 30 to 2,000 units annually at F.O.B. destination pricing; the contract term runs January 1 through December 31, 2027. The City of Philadelphia issued a micro purchase quotation (B2627166) on May 20, 2026, with a May 27, 2026 response deadline, for black adhesive foam boards and satin archival photo paper, with quotes submitted electronically and valid for 60 days. Both opportunities require F.O.B. destination pricing on an all-inclusive basis, physical samples or executed vendor agreements, and compliance with local tax and nondiscrimination requirements.
