UNSPSC 14121503: Cardboard

UNSPSC 14121503 Cardboard, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent state and local opportunity tagged to this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline—solicits Law Enforcement Equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle, not cardboard or cardboard products. The mismatch between the code designation and the actual procurement scope suggests this code does not currently reflect active state and local buying patterns for containerboard or paper-based packaging materials at the jurisdictional level represented in recent notices.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, with the contract available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities throughout the United States and Canada. The geographic scope spans Washington state and broader regions across North America, but the procurement itself diverges entirely from cardboard sourcing. No additional cardboard-specific opportunities appear in the recent record. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for practical state and local procurement targeting and monitor whether future postings correct the coding or reflect genuine cardboard demand from state agencies, counties, or municipalities.
