UNSPSC 24112500: Corrugated and other supplies for distribution

UNSPSC 24112500 Corrugated and other supplies for distribution is a Class code covering the procurement of corrugated boxes, paper containers, and related distribution packaging that state and local governments buy for operational and institutional use. State and local buyers under this code include school districts and state purchasing offices. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas recently solicited custodial supplies (a broader category that may include packaging and distribution materials), while the State of California's procurement office specifically sought corrugated paper containers and boxes to support multiple state agency requirements. The scope reflects straightforward supply-chain procurement: boxes in specified configurations, quantities, and technical specifications, with vendors responsible for meeting state or district standards and delivering to designated locations.

California and Texas have shown recent activity under this code. The State of California posted RFB RFB-IS-26200561 for corrugated paper containers and boxes (T-SPEC designation) on February 16, 2026, with a response deadline of March 2, 2026. Northside Independent School District issued RFP 2026-071 for custodial supplies on May 13, 2026, with sealed bids due June 4, 2026; this RFP replaces an expiring contract and requires all vendors to resubmit to maintain business continuity. Set-aside provisions may apply under California procurement regulations for small businesses and disabled veteran-owned businesses, though specific designations were not disclosed in the available documentation. Both solicitations indicate recurring, commodity-based purchasing with standard competitive bidding processes and price-based evaluation.
