UNSPSC 40161501: Vacuum filters

UNSPSC 40161501 Vacuum filters is a Commodity code that covers vacuum and floor-cleaning equipment filters and related consumables, though state and local solicitations under this code name often cast a broader net across custodial and janitorial supplies, equipment, and support services. The actual work being solicited includes everything from standalone filters and filter replacements for commercial cleaning machinery to comprehensive catalogs of custodial supplies (chemicals, paper products, mops, brooms, dispensers, safety equipment) and floor machine parts for maintenance operations. School districts and cooperative purchasing entities dominate the issuing-body mix; the Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas has posted multiple custodial-supply catalog-discount RFPs in recent cycles, and Florida school boards (Polk County, Marion County, Pinellas County) have issued multiple ITBs for janitorial and floor-equipment supplies. A municipal procurement (City of Newark, New Jersey) and a state university (Georgia College & State University) also appear in the recent record. The code shows material activity across Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative), Florida (multiple school districts), Georgia (Jackson County School System, Georgia College & State University), and New Jersey, with school district procurement concentrated in Florida.

Representative recent opportunities include Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's Catalog Discount Bid: Custodial Supplies (CUS2628), an RFP with estimated expenditures of $12,638,478 over two years and a May 26, 2026 response deadline; Pinellas County Schools' Floor Machine Parts ITB (26AM002), covering 16 manufacturer lines of original-equipment parts with an estimated $60,000 annual value and a February 20, 2026 deadline; Jackson County Schools' Custodial Supplies and Support Program RFCSP with a mandatory pre-bid meeting on April 7, 2026 and a proposal deadline of April 28, 2026; and the School Board of Polk County's Custodial Cleaning Supplies ITB (022TD1226), which awarded nine vendors across 97 line items for a total of $242,309.49. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative structure is designed to serve multiple member entities across regions and has attracted 33 to 49 prior respondents per cycle, indicating a competitive, recurring category.
