UNSPSC 23153501: Paint application system

UNSPSC 23153501 Paint application system is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure equipment and machinery for applying, mixing, and distributing paint in infrastructure maintenance and field operations. Recent solicitations show the code capturing requests for battery-powered paint tote mixers designed to blend road-marking paint in large-volume containers, along with robotic field-marking systems that automate paint application in transportation projects. The issuing bodies include state departments of transportation and municipal public works departments, with the Utah Department of Transportation appearing as a repeat buyer pursuing equipment standardization for waterborne paint striping operations.

Activity concentrates in Utah and Connecticut based on recent postings. The Utah Department of Transportation issued two related IFBs for six battery-powered paint tote mixers each—the first posted May 8, 2026 with bids due May 18, 2026, and a revised notice posted June 1, 2026 with bids due June 9, 2026 and delivery required by June 30, 2026 to meet fiscal year end.

UDOT's specifications call for equipment with minimum 1 horsepower, variable speeds with horizontal and vertical rotation capability, programmable mixing modes, stainless steel folding blades, and shaft length adequate for 345-gallon totes; awards are anticipated to single providers based on lowest total cost among responsive and responsible bidders, with F.O.B.
