UNSPSC 44102000: Laminating supplies

UNSPSC 44102000 Laminating supplies is a Class code covering specialized plastic film products used to protect, seal, or reinforce materials in state and local manufacturing and administrative operations. The recent solicitations show state and local governments buying polyester overlaminate film with integrated security features — primarily clear laminates with adhesive backings, holographic seals, and custom cutting for identity documents and official materials. The Colorado Department of Corrections represents the primary recent buyer, soliciting large-volume overlaminate film for its Tag Plant facility operated by Colorado Correctional Industries (CCi), where the film is used in manufacturing temporary license plate mounting boards. Scope includes both thin-mil clear overlaminate stock (3 mil to 4 mil polyester) and reinforcement strips with specified adhesive and liner materials, packaged on rolls or in bundles to precise unit counts per pallet. All pricing is all-inclusive with no reimbursable freight or surcharges; bidders must submit physical samples for approval prior to award and meet strict insurance requirements (A.M. Best rating A or better, minimum $1 million general liability coverage) and criminal background vetting for facility access.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Colorado, with the Colorado Department of Corrections posting two nearly identical solicitations in mid-to-late September 2026 for the same overlaminate film products. The first solicitation (DQ1CFAA20270001021), posted September 14, 2026, closed September 23, 2026 with a notice of intent to award September 24, 2026; the second (DQ1CFAA20270001022), posted September 18, 2026, closed September 24, 2026 with samples due October 5, 2026. Both were solicited as Documented Quotes (DQ) with quotes due in advance of notice of intent to award. The Colorado Department of Corrections applied a state goal for Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside of at least 3 percent of contract value. The purchase order term runs October 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with optional annual price increases not to exceed 2.5 percent available by mutual agreement. Bidders must register with Bidnet Direct and the Colorado Secretary of State and satisfy CDOC security compliance requirements including criminal background investigations and facility access clearance.
