UNSPSC 44102800: Binding and lamination machines

UNSPSC 44102800 Binding and lamination machines, a Class code, comprises the supply of specialized laminate films and reinforcement materials used by state agencies in security and identification document manufacturing, as evidenced by recent solicitations for overlaminate films with integrated security features such as holograms and state seals. State and local governments procure these materials for correctional industries operations, license plate tag production, and similar high-security identification applications requiring custom lamination specifications, permanent adhesives, and detailed packaging and delivery protocols. The Colorado Department of Corrections has posted multiple requests for overlaminate film products with exacting material tolerances, security requirements, and sample approval gates prior to award. Issuing bodies under this code include state correctional agencies and their industrial operations; the Colorado Department of Corrections appears as a repeat buyer for the Tag Plant operated by Colorado Territorial Correctional Facility.

Recent activity concentrates in Colorado. The Colorado Department of Corrections solicited overlaminate film in two separate quotes (DQ1CFAA20270001021 and DQ1CFAA20270001022), both with response deadlines of September 23–24, 2026, for a combined scope of 650,000 units of 7-inch by 12-inch laminate and 702,000 units of 1-inch by 10-inch laminate, all with state seal holograms, specific adhesive formulations, and reinforcement strip specifications. Bidders must submit samples by the response date, maintain A.M. Best "A" or better insurance ratings with general liability not less than $1 million per occurrence, complete background investigations and fingerprinting, and accept all-inclusive pricing with no additional shipping reimbursement. The Purchase Order term runs October 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with optional annual price increases not to exceed 2.5% by mutual agreement. Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business certification qualifies bidders for a Colorado state goal of at least 3% of contract value.
