UNSPSC 30121602: Pitch

UNSPSC 30121602 Pitch, a Commodity code, covers asphalt and bituminous material products used in pavement rehabilitation, maintenance, and resurfacing work. State and local governments procure pitch as a raw material or component within broader pavement projects—most commonly for seal coating, crack sealing, micro-surfacing, recycled asphalt binder, and overlay applications on roadways, parking lots, and runway surfaces. The issuing bodies soliciting work under this code span county public works departments, municipal transportation authorities, regional transit systems, and school district facilities management offices. Santa Clara County in California has emerged as a repeat buyer, posting multiple pavement rehabilitation and road safety projects within recent months. Scope ranges from small-scale maintenance contracts (chip seal, fog seal, rejuvenating scrub seal on limited road miles) to large-scale pavement reconstruction projects requiring comprehensive material and labor packages.

Recent activity concentrates in California and Georgia. Santa Clara County posted three separate ITBs between February and May 2026 covering the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (due May 21, 2026), Expressway Guardrail Replacement and Safety Barrier Improvements (due April 23, 2026), and Red Fox Creek Bridge Replacement (due March 5, 2026), each involving hot mix asphalt overlay, dikes, paving, and related materials.
