UNSPSC 30265202: Aluminum ingot

Ingot of various cross sections produced from aluminum

UNSPSC 30265202 Aluminum ingot is a Commodity code, but recent state and local solicitations under this code show minimal direct procurement of raw aluminum ingots or ingot-stage materials. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span fabricated aluminum components and raw metals more broadly — perforated aluminum panels for facility construction, aluminum tubing for corrections facilities, and pallet rack wire decking for court storage. The scope divergence suggests that state and local procurement offices are using this code as a catch-all for aluminum-based materials and components rather than purchasing virgin ingots. Work being solicited includes fabrication and delivery of specialty aluminum products, raw tubing stock, and metal storage systems for public facilities.

Issuing bodies span county governments, state corrections and transportation departments, and judicial systems across multiple states. Harris County (Texas), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and the Superior Court of Los Angeles County are recent active buyers. The geographic spread includes Texas (Harris County, TDCJ), Georgia (White County), Wisconsin (City of Madison), Indiana (INDOT), and California (Los Angeles Superior Court), with no dominant regional concentration. Representative recent opportunities include Harris County's IFB 2026-000058 for perforated aluminum panel fabrication and delivery due October 28, 2026, and TDCJ's IFB IW257847 for raw aluminum tubing due July 24, 2026. The Los Angeles Superior Court solicitation (202635171135) for pallet rack wire decking due May 7, 2026, shows demand for aluminum-based storage infrastructure. Response deadlines have passed for most postings, but the October 28 Harris County opportunity remains active for pursuit.
