UNSPSC 24111800: Tanks and cylinders and their accessories

UNSPSC 24111800 Tanks and cylinders and their accessories is a Class code capturing the supply and installation of storage tanks, pressure vessels, and related equipment for water, fuel, chemical, and industrial applications across state and local agencies. Recent state and local solicitations show demand for chlorine gas cylinders meeting AWWA specifications; above-ground fuel storage tanks with piping and electrical connections; polyethylene and asphalt storage tanks in various capacities; concrete water tanks for distribution systems; stainless steel vacuum tanks for laboratory use; and microfiltration feed tanks for water treatment facilities. Issuing bodies span state departments of transportation and environmental protection, county utilities and public works offices, municipal parks and water departments, and special-purpose water districts. The work ranges from straightforward commodity procurement of standardized cylinders and tanks to full-scope installation and commissioning of large-capacity vessels with site preparation, piping integration, electrical connections, hydrostatic testing, and decommissioning of existing infrastructure.
