UNSPSC 24131900: Ice makers

UNSPSC 24131900 Ice makers, a Class code, covers the procurement of commercial ice machines, ice storage bins, and related ice production equipment by state and local jurisdictions. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying stand-alone ice machines with specified daily production capacities (typically 3,600 to 6,000 pounds per day for institutional use), stainless steel ice storage bins with polyurethane or polystyrene insulation, and ice machine maintenance and sanitation services. Equipment is commonly specified by manufacturer and model (Vogt, Manitowoc, Hoshizaki, Follett, Ice-O-Matic, Indigo NXT), with UL or NSF certification and remote-condenser configurations for high-ambient installations. Issuing bodies include state departments of criminal justice (Texas TDCJ, Illinois Department of Corrections), county governments (Gwinnett County, Pinellas County), municipalities (City of Fort Worth), school districts (Pinellas County School District), and other special-purpose facilities (Santa Clara County, Levi's Stadium). Correctional facilities represent a significant share of recent activity, procuring equipment to replace end-of-life units and meet seasonal ice distribution demand for incarcerated populations.

Activity clusters in Texas, Illinois, Georgia, and Florida. Texas TDCJ has issued multiple ice machine solicitations since July 2026 for facilities including Cole Unit, Terrell Unit, and Halbert State Jail, with bids due in August 2026 and specifying Vogt HES-40S or approved equivalents at 4,000-pound daily capacity.
