UNSPSC 30161703: Linoleum

UNSPSC 30161703 Linoleum, a Commodity code, encompasses flooring materials and installation services state and local governments are actually procuring across carpet, vinyl, epoxy, tile, and specialty products — linoleum appears alongside these alternatives in contemporary solicitations as a component within broader flooring material and services contracts. School districts, municipalities, and state purchasing coalitions are the primary buyers, with school districts issuing the most volume-heavy solicitations due to their multi-building footprint and regular refresh cycles. Work solicited under this code ranges from material supply alone (commodity purchase of flooring sheets, tiles, or specialty products like luxury vinyl tile and non-slip flooring) to turnkey installation and restoration services including surface preparation, labor, warranty, and debris removal; recent opportunities span carpet tile and sheet vinyl, vinyl composition tile, epoxy decorative finishes, and specialty products such as Kinetex non-slip and LVT (luxury vinyl tile). Issuing bodies consistently emphasize preference for certified Small Business Enterprises, minority-owned, women-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned vendors, and many opportunities require minimum commercial experience (three to five years) and compliance with prevailing wage obligations where applicable.

Geographic activity centers on Florida and Texas based on recent postings: Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida (ITB 26190-ITBMST, carpet tile, vinyl, epoxy, and LVT, response due August 6, 2026), Seminole County Schools in Florida (sole-source procurement for Kinetex non-slip flooring, $800,000 annual estimated expenditure, response due October 29, 2025), and the City of Fort Worth, Texas (RFP 260223 for non-exclusive flooring agreements across multiple flooring types including linoleum, due July 23, 2026, with 30% SBE participation goal). The State of Rhode Island Division of Purchases is establishing an open-enrollment Master Price Agreement (MPA 364) for flooring products and installation services across state and municipal subdivisions (RFQ OEV26006568, proposals due June 30, 2030), structured as a qualified vendor list with mini-bid pricing on each agency request. Contract values where identified range from $800,000 annually in sole-source contexts to larger multi-year framework agreements with no fixed purchasing guarantee.
