UNSPSC 41104926: Silica bed filter

UNSPSC 41104926 Silica bed filter (Commodity) sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with the code's scope. The three recent opportunities posted under this code involve unrelated work: fire and rescue equipment maintenance for Fulton County, Georgia; laboratory testing services for the City of Palm Bay, Florida; and removal and replacement of granulated activated carbon filter media for the Louisville Zoo. Only one opportunity—the State of Illinois Environmental Protection Agency's procurement of 2,350 disposable geotech filter capsules with 0.45-micrometer pore size for water testing—involves filtration components that map directly to the code's nominal scope, while a Mississippi state solicitation for filtration components for an oyster hatchery research center remains insufficiently detailed to confirm relevance. The code shows no clear market signal in recent state and local solicitations.

When filtration-related work does appear, issuing bodies span state environmental agencies (Illinois EPA), state natural-resource facilities (Mississippi), county governments (Fulton County through fire services), and municipalities (City of Palm Bay). The Illinois EPA procurement, posted March 5, 2026, with a due date of March 16, 2026, represents a small-purchase basic ordering agreement valued under $50,000 for disposable geotech filter capsules. The Mississippi solicitation (9280-26-R-IFBD-00047), posted May 11, 2026, with a May 29, 2026 deadline, addressed filtration components for the Oyster Hatchery and Research Center but lacked detailed specifications in the available summary. Recent activity concentrates in Illinois and Mississippi, with no geographic clustering that would signal sustained market demand under this code. The disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the representative opportunities posted suggests that state and local governments purchasing silica bed filters and similar filtration equipment do not consistently tag those procurements with this Commodity code.
