UNSPSC 24111833: LPG cylinder racks

Gas cylinders both empty and full must be stored vertically and be secured in stands in the upright position and secure with an insulated chain or non-conductive belt to protect cylinders from falling or becoming damaged. This is necessary to prevent them toppling over and getting damaged, leading to potentially harmful gas leaks.

UNSPSC 24111833 LPG cylinder racks (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The two recent opportunities tagged under this code—a Texas Department of Transportation storage tank procurement and a Pinellas County, Florida microfiltration feed tank replacement—involve large fixed or permanently installed storage vessels (polyethylene horizontal and vertical asphalt tanks, 500-barrel frac tank trailers, and a 12,150-gallon crosslinked polyethylene microfiltration tank) rather than portable LPG cylinder racks. The work being solicited involves tank supply, installation, hydrotesting, and disposal at fixed facility locations, not cylinder storage or handling equipment. State and local agencies posting under this code are purchasing complete storage-tank procurement and installation services through standard IFB and ITB processes, with Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts serving TxDOT and Pinellas County managing its Industrial Water Treatment Facility.

Recent activity centers on Texas and Florida. The Texas Comptroller issued IFB No. 304T-26-830A1.1 for storage tanks with an April 14, 2026 bid deadline, encompassing polyethylene and vertical asphalt tanks on a statewide cooperative purchasing vehicle with delivery FOB Destination and a 1.5% Texas SmartBuy administrative fee. Pinellas County, Florida posted ITB No. 260374 for its single 12,150-gallon tank replacement with an April 30, 2026 response deadline and an estimated project value of approximately $103,722.00, requiring tank supply, installation, hydrotesting, and incumbent-tank disposal. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (LPG cylinder racks) and the actual procurement activity (large fixed storage tanks) suggests the code may be misapplied to these solicitations or that state and local procurement offices use this taxonomy inconsistently for tank-related equipment.
