UNSPSC 30131517: Adobe block

Type of brick block elaborated from miry soil or mire and dried grass or straw which is molded and sun-dried.

UNSPSC 30131517 Adobe block (Commodity) appears in a Santa Clara County pavement rehabilitation solicitation, but the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual procurement signals minimal relevant activity under this code. The single recent opportunity—Santa Clara County's Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project—involves comprehensive roadway construction and rehabilitation including partial depth recycling, hot mix asphalt overlay, PCC curb and gutter installation, ADA improvements, traffic signal modifications, bioretention basins, and guardrail replacement. This work falls squarely within highway and road construction, not adobe block supply or masonry products. The county issued the solicitation as an ITB with a May 21, 2026 due date; completion is required within 142 working days of Notice of Award. No set-asides or vendor preferences are identified in the available documentation, and no budget is disclosed.

Adobe block procurement does not appear in recent state and local contract opportunities beyond this mislabeled record. The code shows little actionable activity for contractors or suppliers targeting state and local government buying of actual adobe masonry products. Firms pursuing this code should monitor California and the Southwest for any authentic adobe restoration or new-construction solicitations, but current signals suggest the code sits inactive in the broader state and local procurement environment.
