UNSPSC 30102225: Cork plate

A structural material made of cork that is less resistant than other plates, but is used because of cork's sound dampening properties.

UNSPSC 30102225 Cork plate is a Commodity code with little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes cork-based materials, yet the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for cork plates or cork products. Instead, the opportunities span window installation (Kissimmee Utility Authority), sewer easement clearing (Town of Waterford), playground construction (Jackson County, Missouri), manhole rehabilitation (Clay County), commercial kitchen renovation (Volusia County), and elevator-escalator replacement (Orange County)—none of which involve cork plate procurement or installation as a primary scope. The issuing bodies are primarily utility authorities, counties, municipalities, and special districts across Florida, Connecticut, Missouri, and Georgia, with Orange County appearing repeatedly across multiple large capital projects. The geographic spread includes Florida counties (Kissimmee, Volusia, Orange, Clay), Connecticut municipalities, Missouri counties, and Georgia counties, with no concentration in cork-plate activity specifically.

State and local governments do not appear to be actively procuring cork plate materials under this code at the present time based on available recent solicitation data. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the substantive work being solicited suggests either that cork plate procurement occurs through a different code pathway, that demand for this commodity is minimal in the current period, or that tagging accuracy in the underlying procurement system is inconsistent. Business development professionals pursuing cork plate sales should verify directly with target procurement offices whether cork plate is being acquired under alternate codes or through cooperative purchasing vehicles rather than relying on UNSPSC 30102225 as a primary lead source.
