UNSPSC 30171700: Glass products

UNSPSC 30171700 Glass products is a Class code covering glass materials and components that state and local governments procure for building envelope work, roadway safety applications, and facility maintenance. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying window glass for installation and repair, reflective glass beads for pavement marking, and glazing components for building rehabilitation and asset optimization. The work spans commercial glazing, building-envelope renovation, and routine facility glass replacement across multiple departments and property types.
