UNSPSC 31211917: Paint roller covers

Used to cover paint rollers that are used for applying paint, stain, etc.

UNSPSC 31211917 Paint roller covers, a Commodity code, encompasses paint application supplies and accessories that state and local governments procure as part of broader paint and coatings programs for facility maintenance and capital projects. Recent solicitations show that this code sits within larger paint and painting-supply buys that include latex and industrial paints, primers, sealers, caulks, specialty coatings, and ancillary application equipment and sundries. The issuing bodies are predominantly city procurement offices and county facilities management divisions managing centralized supply agreements, alongside state departments and special-purpose development authorities undertaking specific painting and renovation projects.

Recent activity centers on Texas, Wisconsin, Florida, Illinois, and California. The City of Fort Worth posted RFP 26-0224 (Paint and Paint Supplies, due August 6, 2026) seeking non-exclusive agreements to supply paint and sundries to city departments on an as-needed basis, with a 30% small business participation goal and best-value evaluation weighted toward cost, vendor experience, delivery capability, and business location preference for Fort Worth-based vendors. Collier County, Florida issued ITB No. 25-8406 (Paint and Related Items) targeting architectural, industrial, specialty, and automotive paints with associated supplies, requiring vendors to maintain a retail location within 10 miles of the county government complex and historically spending approximately $675,380 on similar agreements. The Community Development Authority of Madison, Wisconsin solicited bids on the Karabis Apartments Painting and Siding Project (RFB #15051-0-2026-AH, due July 17, 2026), a Davis-Bacon-compliant exterior renovation including painting, caulking, gutter and soffit work. The Illinois Secretary of State posted an RFQ for painting supplies (due April 9, 2026) establishing a multi-year contract. A Santa Clara County highway safety project posted in late March 2026 requires thermoplastic traffic striping but is primarily guardrail and barrier work, showing minimal alignment with the paint roller covers scope.
