UNSPSC 30181500: Sanitary ware

UNSPSC 30181500 Sanitary ware is a Class code encompassing fixtures, components, and materials that state and local governments procure to renovate, upgrade, and maintain restroom and bathroom facilities across their properties. Recent solicitations reveal purchasing bodies acquiring toilets, sinks, urinals, faucets, mixing valves, drainage and vent piping, waterless cartridges, low-flow fixtures, and associated plumbing accessories—both as standalone supply contracts and as line items within larger facility renovation projects. Issuing bodies include county water authorities, state departments of criminal justice and transportation, city and county governments, school districts, transit authorities, and universities. Repeat buyers in the recent activity include Seminole County, Florida (multiple home reconstruction projects incorporating plumbing fixtures), the City of Pembroke Pines, Florida (park restroom renovations), and various Georgia jurisdictions (school districts, state college, county facilities). The work spans routine maintenance supply agreements, emergency repair services, and capital projects ranging from single-fixture replacements to comprehensive restroom modernizations.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Texas, and California, with scattered opportunities across Connecticut, Arizona, New Mexico, and Wisconsin. Representative recent solicitations include Clayton County Water Authority's RFB for restroom renovations due August 5, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for HVAC and plumbing parts and supplies for Vernon State Hospital (updated version HHS0017447 V2 due July 28, 2026); the City of Phoenix Public Works Department's IFB for industrial pipe, miscellaneous fittings, and equipment (as-needed supply, three-year term, due August 12, 2026); the City of Fort Worth's RFP for residential plumbing services on an as-needed basis with a 30% small business participation goal (due July 2, 2026); the City of Pembroke Pines' IFB for restroom renovations at five park locations (Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, 90-day completion, due July 21, 2026); and Volusia County Transit's ITB for VOTRAN Transfer Plaza restroom renovations (estimated $225,000, DBE goal 5.2%, due March 26, 2026). Set-asides and preferences appear frequently—Davis-Bacon wage compliance on federally funded projects, Section 3 employment requirements, local vendor preferences (typically 2–5%), and small business enterprise participation goals (ranging 5–30%) are common terms. This code is active and worth pursuing for vendors with plumbing product supply, fixture installation, or restroom renovation capabilities in jurisdictions undergoing facility upgrades or managing large property portfolios.
