UNSPSC 31201616: Liquid adhesives

UNSPSC 31201616 Liquid adhesives is a Commodity code that spans industrial sealers, caulks, and adhesive products used in building maintenance and construction repair work. The recent opportunities under this code show state and local governments purchasing liquid sealants for joint sealing and caulking applications in facility maintenance contracts, as well as specialized industrial sealers for equipment servicing. Issuing bodies include county maintenance departments, university facilities operations, regional transit authorities, and cooperative purchasing vehicles established to serve multiple jurisdictions and public entities. The scope of work encompasses both as-needed maintenance contracts for caulking and joint sealing on county properties and project-specific interior painting and repair work where sealants are subordinate line-item materials or subcontracted services.

Activity under the code spans multiple states and regions. The most recent opportunities originate from Florida (Seminole County's three-year term contract for caulking, coatings, joint sealants, and pressure washing services), Texas (University of Texas at Tyler's Liberty Landing Apartments interior painting and sealant work, and Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority's RTV Cummins sealer procurement), and multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing through Sourcewell serving Washington state and nationwide. Representative solicitations include Seminole County's Invitation for Bid #604483-22/LNF for a term contract covering caulking and joint sealant services on county-owned properties, with evaluation on a pass-fail basis and a structure of an initial three-year term plus two successive one-year renewals; the University of Texas at Tyler's RFP for interior painting at Liberty Landing Apartments, due April 3, 2026, which identifies joint sealant and caulking as identified subcontracting opportunities; and Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority's quick-turnaround procurement for RTV Cummins sealer, posted March 11, 2026, with a March 13, 2026 deadline.
