UNSPSC 30161714: Cork flooring

UNSPSC 30161714 Cork flooring, a Commodity code, covers the materials and installation labor for cork and specialized non-slip flooring products that state and local governments install across facilities. Based on recent solicitations, the code encompasses purchase of manufactured flooring stock (including non-slip variants like Kinetex), floor preparation work such as skim coating and substrate conditioning, removal and disposal of existing flooring, and labor for installation during standard business hours or after-hours when facility operations require it. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, reflecting heavy investment in flooring upgrades and maintenance across district facilities. The work spans both sole-source acquisitions of branded products and competitive bids for installation services that may include multiple flooring types alongside cork and cork-adjacent materials.

Activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia based on recent postings. The School Board of Seminole County, Florida posted a sole-source procurement (25260057STL) for Kinetex non-slip flooring manufactured by J+J Flooring with an estimated annual expenditure of $800,000, due October 29, 2025, under a Notice of Intent to Sole Source that allowed alternative proposals or challenges to the designation. Atlanta Public Schools posted a competitive Invitation for Bid (PE76110NONST2026000000125) for carpet and flooring installation services due March 18, 2026, with a mandatory pre-bid conference on February 25, 2026, covering installation of broadloom, tile carpet, resilient flooring, ceramic tile, and cove base with floor prep, removal, and disposal included; the contract runs one year with options to renew for up to four additional one-year periods. Both districts priced work on a per-square-foot basis or hourly rate and required compliance with state insurance and background-check requirements.
