UNSPSC 41104914: Bottletops or filtration cups

UNSPSC 41104914 Bottletops or filtration cups is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope. The three opportunities that do relate to filtration involve granulated activated carbon replacement at a zoo exhibit facility (Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government), disposable geotech filter capsules for water testing (State of Illinois Environmental Protection Agency), and filtration components for an oyster hatchery (State of Mississippi). A fourth opportunity—Fulton County, Georgia's fire and rescue equipment procurement—covers breathing apparatus and related safety gear but is plainly unrelated to bottletops or filtration cups. The code shows little relevant recent activity grounded in the literal product category.

The geographic spread is scattered across Georgia, Mississippi, Illinois, and Florida, with no pattern of concentration. Issuing bodies include a county fire department, a state environmental agency, a state aquaculture research facility, and a metropolitan zoo. Representative recent opportunities include the State of Illinois Environmental Protection Agency's procurement of 2,350 disposable geotech filter capsules (0.45-micrometer pore size, 350 square centimeters surface area) due March 16, 2026, under a small purchase acquisition method, and the Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government's invitation for bid (IFB260185) for removal and replacement of approximately 235 cubic feet of granulated activated carbon for aquarium filtration at the Louisville Zoo, with bids due March 26, 2026. Neither procurement involves bottletops or the product category the code nominally covers.
