UNSPSC 41114719: Paper sheet testing machine

A type of paper manufacturing device for test that is purported to undertake the characteristic test of pulp.

UNSPSC 41114719 Paper sheet testing machine (Commodity) does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code. Recent opportunities posted under this classification involve precision optical, electrical, and laboratory testing equipment and services wholly unrelated to paper sheet testing—including optical surface profilometers at educational institutions, airfield photometric lighting systems at airport authorities, high-voltage capacitance measurement modules at utility authorities, three-phase electric meter test boards at municipal electric utilities, spectrophotometers at waste-to-energy facilities, and insulating oil analysis services at electric utilities. The issuing bodies include state universities, county port authorities, city utility departments, municipal water and wastewater authorities, and regional electric utilities across Florida, Texas, Colorado, Oregon, and Arizona. The code's nominal scope—paper sheet testing machinery—appears to be a taxonomy mislabeling rather than an active procurement category.

Recent opportunities show no state or local government procurement of paper sheet testing equipment or services. Valencia College posted a sole-source notice (SS202635, due June 16, 2026) for a PGI Optics CORE Optical Surface Profilometer; Lee County Port Authority requested quotes for airfield photometric testing services at Southwest Florida International Airport (2026115BW, RFQ, due October 29, 2026); the City of Ocala Electric Utility issued an RFP (RFPELE260570, due April 30, 2026) for a three-phase meter test board system; and the City of Phoenix Water Services Department solicited atmospheric monitoring instruments in sealed-offer form (IFB-27-0435, due September 4, 2026). This code does not support active business development pursuit under its stated commodity name.
