UNSPSC 30262201: Cold drawn copper bar

Cold drawn bar of various cross sections produced from copper

UNSPSC 30262201 Cold drawn copper bar is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity encompasses chemical compounds and related materials rather than the drawn bar stock the code name suggests. Pasco County, Florida's June 2026 solicitation for large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate on an as-needed basis demonstrates that state and local agencies are using this code to procure specialty chemical products. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (cold drawn copper bar) and the actual work being solicited (copper sulfate compounds) suggests either a coding inconsistency in the county's procurement system or that the code has been repurposed locally to cover a broader range of copper-based chemical materials. The work involves supplying bulk chemical compounds for county operations, likely water treatment, agricultural, or industrial applications. Issuing bodies under this code appear limited to county-level procurement at present.

Recent activity shows Pasco County, Florida as the sole identifiable buyer in the available record. The county issued RFQ RFQFP261004 on June 3, 2026, with a response deadline of June 26, 2026, for an indefinite-quantity supply arrangement covering large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate. The solicitation contemplates contracting with one or more vendors under a blanket as-needed structure. No estimated contract value, set-asides, preferences, contract term, or evaluation criteria details are specified in the source. The narrow geographic concentration and limited recent opportunity visibility suggest either low overall procurement velocity under this code or a data-capture gap in state and local systems.
