About UNSPSC 30131606
UNSPSC 30131606 Loess brick, a Commodity code, shows no substantive recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's scope. The most-recent-opportunities block contains five records posted between January and July 2026, none of which involve loess brick procurement. One record is a departmental relocation notice unrelated to any procurement. The remaining four opportunities address law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell cooperative purchasing, RFP #061626), facility maintenance parts and supplies (San Bernardino County ITB 6391), historic masonry restoration including conventional brick repointing and replacement (Monroe County RFP and City of Statesboro sealed bid), and water system pump station renovation (Franklin County ITB). The historic masonry projects call for matching existing brick and mortar exactly to meet preservation standards, but specify conventional materials such as US Heritage NHL 3.5 Natural Hydraulic Lime Mortar and historic brick matches rather than loess brick products.
The code does not appear active in recent state and local solicitations. Loess brick, a weathered sedimentary product used primarily in historic restoration and specialized masonry applications, remains outside the scope of the five posted opportunities. Buyers across multiple states and jurisdictions—county purchasing departments, cities, counties, and cooperative purchasing entities in California, Georgia, Florida, Minnesota, and Washington—have posted infrastructure, restoration, and equipment procurements during this period, but none reference loess brick as a line item or material requirement. Without evidence of demand in the recent-opportunities block, the code merits watch rather than active pursuit.
