UNSPSC 39101619: Compact fluorescent CFL lamps

Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) are smaller versions of standard fluorescent lamps, consuming between 5 to 40 watts. Unlike standard fluorescent lamps, they can directly replace standard incandescent bulbs.

UNSPSC 39101619 Compact fluorescent CFL lamps is a Commodity code covering lighting products purchased by state and local governments for facility operations, maintenance, and specialized industrial applications. State and local buyers under this code solicit LED lighting and related electrical equipment through a mix of issuing bodies including county port authorities, school districts, state cooperatives, and municipal departments. The scope encompasses not only traditional compact fluorescent products but increasingly LED replacements for failed lighting units and inventory replenishment, as evidenced by recent activity focusing on LED floodlights, general LED lighting distribution contracts, and the inclusion of CFLs within broader mercury-waste recycling procurement streams.

Recent activity spans Florida, Texas, Illinois, Arizona, and multistate cooperative procurement vehicles. Broward County solicited Phoenix LED Floodlights (281 units across six specified models) on an open-end supply contract for Port Everglades Department with an IFB posted September 15, 2026 and due September 25, 2026—eight competing vendors submitted total bids ranging from $697,850.59 to $889,475.52, with SBE, CBE, and local-vendor preferences available.

The City of Tucson's mercury-waste recycling RFP (posted July 14, 2026, historically due June 13, 2023) specifies collection and recycling of 350 compact fluorescent lamps annually among other mercury-containing items.
