UNSPSC 14121810: Carbon papers

UNSPSC 14121810 Carbon papers is a Commodity code covering blank thermal boarding pass stock, automated ticket stock, and related carbonless or thermal printing media that state and local governments purchase for airport operations and administrative printing. The recent activity under this code centers on airport authorities and county procurement offices acquiring thermal paper products for ticketing and passenger-facing applications. Sacramento County's Department of Airports, acting as lead agency for the Sacramento County Procurement Alliance (SCoPA), has solicited proposals for bag tags, thermal paper, and automated ticket and boarding pass stock under an RFP with an initial two-year contract term and up to three optional one-year extensions. The County reserves discretion to award one or multiple contracts by line item and does not guarantee minimum purchases; any resulting contract may be used by additional participating SCoPA members, expanding the vendor's potential customer base within the cooperative purchasing vehicle.

California shows the most recent documented activity under this code, with Sacramento County's Department of Airports issuing RFP 2026RFP0016 for thermal boarding pass and ATB ticket stock as of September 2026. The solicitation structure reflects typical state and local cooperative purchasing patterns, where a lead county agency negotiates terms benefiting multiple participating governmental and non-profit entities. No other recent state or local opportunities appear in the source, indicating limited current visibility under this specific commodity code; issuers may tag similar thermal paper and ticketing stock acquisitions under broader office supply or printing codes rather than this narrower commodity classification.
