UNSPSC 31201709: Polyurethane conformal coating

A polyurethane based material used to coat electronic component circuitry for protection against environmental or physical damage

UNSPSC 31201709 Polyurethane conformal coating is a Commodity code that encompasses adhesive sealant products and application services for concrete and infrastructure surfaces, as evidenced by recent state and local solicitations requesting polyurethane and epoxy sealers, concrete sealant services, and specialty tape products. State and local governments use this code to procure both the material inputs (sealer formulations, fusion tape, and related compounds) and the labor-intensive application work necessary to protect and maintain concrete surfaces at transportation facilities, streetcar platforms, maintenance bases, and similar assets. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include transportation authorities, county governments, and cooperative purchasing vehicles representing multi-jurisdiction consortia. The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and Dallas County, Texas appear in recent opportunities; Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit, has also tagged equipment procurement under this code on behalf of multiple participating entities.

Recent activity spans California and Texas. The most substantive opportunity is OCTA's IFB 250318 for concrete sealant services, posted October 7, 2026 with bids due October 14, 2026 at 11:00 a.m., valued at $250,000 for a one-year term. The scope includes surface preparation and application of five sealer types (penetrating, water-based acrylic, solvent-based acrylic, epoxy, and polyurethane) across approximately 35,000 square feet of cleaning and 35,000 square feet of sealant application annually at twelve OCTA facilities and sixteen OC Streetcar platforms throughout Orange County. The contract is subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements and DBE participation goals; pricing is firm-fixed per square foot with no increases permitted during the term. Dallas County's IFB 2100758, posted August 28, 2026 with bids due October 1, 2026, requests fusion tape (1 inch by 0.020 inch by 30 feet) but provides no contract value or additional scope detail. A Sourcewell RFP for law enforcement equipment (RFP 061626, due June 16, 2026) is tagged under this code but does not align with concrete sealant or polyurethane conformal coating scope; the disconnect suggests occasional tagging misalignment in state and local systems.
