UNSPSC 30101806: Aluminum channels

UNSPSC 30101806 Aluminum channels is a Commodity code that covers structural aluminum channel stock used in construction and infrastructure projects. State and local procurement under this code focuses on the supply of aluminum channel materials as components within broader construction contracts — particularly for bridge, roadway, and facility construction where structural framing or support elements are required. The code sees activity from city capital delivery departments and county public works offices managing major infrastructure bonds and capital improvement programs, with issuing bodies treating aluminum channels as material line items within larger integrated construction solicitations rather than as standalone purchases.

Recent state and local opportunities show aluminum channels specified as part of competitive sealed proposal processes for infrastructure work. The City of San Antonio Capital Delivery Department posted two RFCPs in mid-2026 — the Hays Street Bridge Connections & Eastside Area Streets project (RFCSP2026025, due August 25, 2026) and Fire Station #33 Facility Replacement (RFCSP2026071, due July 30, 2026) — both funded through 2022 Bond programs and citing structural shapes among applicable product categories. Sarasota County solicited a steel truss pedestrian bridge construction contract (IFB 262861MN) for Midnight Pass Road, posting in late July 2026, which would incorporate structural materials within the full-scope construction award. Geographic activity centers on Texas and Florida, with San Antonio appearing as a repeat buyer managing multiple capital delivery projects. The code shows modest recent activity with limited standalone material solicitations; aluminum channels typically flow as specified components within larger infrastructure RFPs and RFCPs rather than as independent procurements.
