UNSPSC 31151901: Metal straps

UNSPSC 31151901 Metal straps is a Commodity code that covers binding and fastening materials used across facility operations and construction work. State and local governments solicit metal straps primarily as consumable supplies for janitorial operations, facility maintenance, and general stockpiling, and as structural components in construction and renovation projects. Recent opportunities show mixed application — metal straps appear as line items within broader janitorial and operational supplies bundles serving fire rescue and emergency management, and as discrete materials in school facility renovation and athletic complex upgrades. The issuing bodies include county commissioners' offices, municipal school districts acting through construction managers at risk, and related facilities authorities, often purchasing on an as-needed or project-basis model rather than standing inventory.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB 2600319 on July 7, 2026, seeking consumable janitorial and operational supplies including metal straps on an as-needed basis for the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department's 47 stations, with bids due July 24, 2026, under a $765,679.84 estimated one-year contract. Atlanta Public Schools, through Construction Manager at Risk agent The Winter Construction Company, posted a miscellaneous bundle project proposal solicitation on January 29, 2026, covering seating, drainage, storage, structural, and netting installation across four school facilities with a February 27, 2026 response deadline; metal straps likely appear as a discrete material within structural remediation and installation scopes rather than as a primary procurement line. The code shows activity primarily at the county and school-district level in the Southeast, with procurement structured both as consumable supply blankets and as component materials within fixed-scope construction projects.
