UNSPSC 40141610: Float valves

UNSPSC 40141610 Float valves, a Commodity code, encompasses the supply of flow-control valve products for water infrastructure maintenance and repair. State and local governments procure float valves, gate valves, check valves, butterfly valves, and related water-system components through this code for municipal water treatment plants, filter facilities, water districts, and related water resource operations. Recent solicitations show procurement bodies acquiring specific valve types—detector check valves, resilient seat gates, swing check valves, and butterfly valves—for delivery to water treatment centers, storage facilities, and operational depots, often with firm pricing required throughout multi-year contract periods. Issuing bodies include water districts (Alameda County Water District, Eastern Municipal Water District), county water authorities (Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources, Douglasville-Douglas County Water and Sewer Authority), and venue management bodies (Santa Clara County Stadium Authority for restroom fixtures at Levi's Stadium). Gwinnett County emerges as a frequent buyer, posting multiple informal written quotations and sealed bids for valves and valve kits throughout the first half of 2026.
