UNSPSC 31121812: Bronze ceramic mold machined castings

UNSPSC 31121812 Bronze ceramic mold machined castings, a Commodity code, encompasses cast bronze and aluminum plaques, seals, and architectural metalwork that state and local governments acquire for commemorative displays, facility signage, and infrastructure components. The work solicited under this code ranges from large-scale cast bronze seals with detailed prismatic 3D features and texture specifications to cast aluminum letter assemblies and repair parts for municipal water systems, all fabricated to specifications that often encourage recycled material content. Issuing bodies include state departments and municipalities; the Texas Department of Public Safety and the City of Arlington have both posted opportunities recently, suggesting activity among mid-sized and larger state and local entities.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas. The Texas Department of Public Safety issued an Invitation for Bid (solicitation 40526R0025759, response date October 12, 2026) for the Legacy Hall Courtyard Display, a project comprising three cast plaques including a 65-inch diameter cast bronze seal with 3D prismatic star and dark oxide finish, cast aluminum letter assemblies spelling "INTEGRITY," "EXCELLENCE," "ACCOUNTABILITY," and "TEAMWORK," and cast aluminum prismatic stars, with lump-sum pricing for design, materials, labor, and installation. The City of Arlington, Texas posted an annual requirements contract solicitation (270041, response date October 22, 2026) for brass water repair parts including service line fittings, accessories, and tapping saddles for warehouse stock replenishment. Both opportunities specify compliance with state standards, E-Verify and drug-free workplace requirements, and record retention; the DPS opportunity emphasizes CJIS security compliance and background checks for facility access.
