UNSPSC 31141801: Plastic reaction injection moldings

UNSPSC 31141801 Plastic reaction injection moldings is a Commodity code that captures the procurement of specialized injection molding equipment and related manufacturing machinery used by state and local institutions. The code, as reflected in recent solicitations, encompasses the acquisition of high-capacity injection molding machines meeting strict technical specifications—including bore diameter, shot size, barrel temperature, and footprint constraints—along with associated services such as installation, training, warranty, and technical support. State and local buyers under this code include higher-education institutions procuring manufacturing equipment for research and instructional facilities.

The University of Southern Mississippi posted an IFB (Solicitation Number 3160008023, BID 26-41) on April 26, 2026, with a response deadline of May 12, 2026, for a 110-ton electric injection molding machine to be installed in the Mississippi Polymer Institute Processing Lab. The machine specifications required acceptance of molds up to 14" x 14" x 16", a 40mm screw diameter, 171-gram shot size, maximum barrel temperatures of 800 degrees Fahrenheit, and a footprint of 179" x 50" to fit within the lab and pass through doorways measuring 82" height by 70" width. The solicitation required firm F.O.B. Destination pricing, delivery within 16 weeks, one day of installation and familiarization, three days of training, a one-year warranty commencing after installation and verification, and lifetime online and on-call technical support. Payment terms were 2% discount for payment within ten days or net 45 days. No contract award value was disclosed, and no set-aside designations were noted in available documentation. Recent activity under this code is sparse; the University of Southern Mississippi solicitation represents the primary visible state and local procurement signal.
