UNSPSC 23151907: Screen drum or sieve

A device of wire mesh or closely perforated metal, used for straining, sifting, ricing, or pureeing a filter to retain larger pieces while smaller pieces and liquids pass through.

UNSPSC 23151907 Screen drum or sieve is a Commodity code that sees mixed recent activity across state and local procurement: the code nominally covers equipment such as mechanically cleaned wastewater screens, but recent solicitations tagged to this code include primarily flat printing services unrelated to the code's scope. The Maryland Environmental Service issued a competitive sealed bid (IFB) on April 28, 2026, for the supply and delivery of a mechanically cleaned 6-millimeter wastewater screen for the Dorsey Run Wastewater Treatment Plant in Jessup, Anne Arundel County, Maryland, with mandatory site visits on May 6 and May 8, 2026, and a May 28, 2026, bid-opening deadline. The equipment must handle a peak flow of 4.8 million gallons per day with spray wash components, operator training, and operation and maintenance manuals included. Four recent City of Philadelphia procurement notices (posted April 21, April 24, June 4, and June 23, 2026) were also tagged to this code but solicited flat printing services — door hangers and wellness pamphlets — which fall outside the wastewater equipment scope.

Maryland accounts for the only clearly relevant recent activity under this code. The Maryland Environmental Service's wastewater screen procurement required attendance at mandatory pre-bid site visits, submission of shop drawings and load calculations, minimum five references from operating installations, and compliance with state nondiscrimination and minority business enterprise requirements, with no set-asides or bonding mandates. The Philadelphia flat printing solicitations, while numerous, represent a tagging mismatch and do not reflect genuine activity within the screen drum or sieve Commodity code. Business development professionals should treat this code as showing limited state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope; the wastewater equipment opportunity in Maryland represents the primary recent example but closed in May 2026.
