UNSPSC 23231701: Baffle

UNSPSC 23231701 Baffle is a Commodity code for flow-control and separation devices used in water treatment and industrial applications. State and local governments procure baffles primarily through water utilities and special-purpose districts managing treatment facilities, stormwater systems, and wastewater infrastructure. The code spans fiberglass weirs, scum baffles, and similar devices that separate, direct, or settle solids in process tanks and channels. Issuing bodies are dominated by municipal water districts and regional water authorities responsible for operation and maintenance of treatment plants and distribution systems.

Recent activity shows sparse posting volume. The North Texas Municipal Water District issued an IFB (Solicitation 26169B) for Fiberglass Weir Plates and Scum Baffles with an August 7, 2026 response deadline. A second posting tagged to this code—Sourcewell's RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment (due June 16, 2026)—falls outside the code's nominal scope and indicates a tagging mismatch rather than baffle procurement. Geographic concentration is limited; the confirmed relevant opportunity originates in Texas. The code shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity tied to actual baffle demand.
