UNSPSC 14121806: Waxed paper

UNSPSC 14121806 Waxed paper (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement primarily as a line item within broader child nutrition and janitorial supplies contracts rather than as a standalone commodity. Recent solicitations tag waxed paper alongside food service disposables, cleaning supplies, and operational consumables for school districts and county public agencies. The code captures one component of the food-service packaging and janitorial supply ecosystem that state and local governments buy continuously on an as-needed or annual basis.

School districts dominate the recent activity under this code. Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas), Rockwood R-VI School District (St. Louis County, Missouri), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) have each posted RFPs for child nutrition supplies that bundle waxed paper with foam containers, plastic wraps, napkins, and other disposables in single competitive procurements. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) solicited janitorial and operational supplies for 47 fire stations on an ITB basis, which may include waxed paper among consumables. The issuing bodies reflect a mix of school districts seeking annual supplies for food service operations and county departments purchasing consumable supplies for operations across multiple facilities. Recent solicitations cluster in the Southeast (Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Texas), with Rockwood R-VI School District's RFP for Child Nutrition Services Paper and Supplies (due April 28, 2026, covering July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027) and Douglas County School System's RFP 26-006 Paper and Chemical Supplies (due March 4, 2026, for a July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 term) as representative examples. Northside Independent School District's RFP 2026-046 for Child Nutrition Supplies (due April 2, 2026, for a July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 term with one renewal option) represents procurement at scale across 132 school sites. School district contracts typically require firm pricing for the full annual term, F.O.B. destination delivery on established schedules, and compliance with USDA Buy American and HACCP certifications. No recent opportunities isolate waxed paper as a discrete procurement; the code appears only as an embedded line item within larger bundle purchases, suggesting modest volume and decision-relevance at the individual commodity level.
