UNSPSC 41103012: Flammable material storage refrigerators or refrigerator freezers

UNSPSC 41103012 Flammable material storage refrigerators or refrigerator freezers is a Commodity code. State and local governments buy medical-grade refrigeration equipment under this code, including pharmacy refrigerators with temperature control and alarm functions for correctional facilities, vaccine storage units with data logging capabilities, and specialized freezer and refrigerator trucks for law enforcement evidence storage. The Illinois Department of Corrections dominates recent activity, appearing twice in the past three months with bids for countertop medical pharmacy refrigerators and distributed refrigeration and vaccine data logging systems across 26 statewide facilities. Additional recent solicitations span a city police department, a state general land office, and a cooperative purchasing entity. The work is heavily skewed toward temperature-sensitive medical and forensic storage applications rather than general flammable-material containment.

Recent activity concentrates in Illinois and Arizona, with one national cooperative procurement and one Texas state agency solicitation. The Illinois Department of Corrections issued IFB No. 26-426DOC-CENTO-B-52227 in May 2026 for medical-grade refrigeration units and vaccine data loggers across 26 correctional facilities, with a May 18, 2026 bid deadline and June 30, 2026 delivery requirement; the department also solicited 28 countertop medical pharmacy refrigerators with alarms (Solicitation 26426DOCGRANTB52493, May 2026, due May 18, 2026). The City of Tucson issued RFQ No. 250119 in February 2026 for emergency freezer and refrigerator truck rentals for the Tucson Police Department Evidence unit, with an initial one-year term and a not-to-exceed value of $100,000. Sourcewell, acting on behalf of multiple Washington state counties and other public entities nationwide, issued RFP #061626 in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment (response due June 16, 2026), though the law enforcement equipment scope is broadly defined and the relevance to flammable-material refrigeration is unclear from available documentation. Illinois procurements typically require original-manufacturer or authorized-distributor status, one-year manufacturer warranties, four-year compressor warranties, and compliance with state prevailing wage and insurance standards including $1,000,000 general commercial liability coverage.
