UNSPSC 31201504: Carpet tape

UNSPSC 31201504 Carpet tape, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The three posted opportunities from early 2026 include two flooring-installation solicitations (Atlanta Public Schools in February and Illinois State Police in March) that name carpet tile adhesives, cove base materials, and related installation supplies as line items within broader flooring contracts, and one large construction-services solicitation (Orange County, Florida in April) for ADA pedestrian-safety improvements that does not reference carpet tape at all. State and local buyers soliciting under this code span independent school districts, state agencies, and county governments; none of these three issuers appear more than once in the recent record. The scope of work actually being purchased reflects flooring support materials and adhesives used during installation phases of capital projects, not standalone carpet tape procurement.

Recent activity appears in Florida, Georgia, and Illinois. Atlanta Public Schools issued an IFB due March 18, 2026, for district-wide carpet and flooring installation services including broadloom and carpet tiles with cove base installation across 87 schools and 13 administrative buildings; Illinois State Police issued a sealed bid (due March 26, 2026) for flooring installation supplies through Shaw authorized dealers at three district locations, including carpet tile adhesives and cove base thermoplastic rubber totaling approximately 4,560 linear feet; and Orange County, Florida issued an IFB (due May 7, 2026) for an indefinite-quantity construction contract valued at $6,255,475 for ADA pedestrian-safety improvements, which does not identify carpet tape as a deliverable. Carpet tape does not appear as a line item or explicit requirement in any of the three opportunities, suggesting the code may be underutilized or misapplied to these flooring projects by the procuring jurisdictions.
