UNSPSC 44121804: Erasers

UNSPSC 44121804 Erasers is a Commodity code representing a narrow product line—physical erasers for writing instruments—that state and local governments procure primarily as components of broader school supply contracts rather than as standalone line items. Recent solicitations show erasers bundled within comprehensive instructional-supply purchases by school districts, alongside paper products, writing instruments, adhesives, and classroom tools. State and local issuing bodies under this code consist predominantly of school districts and their procurement departments, with occasional one-off purchases by specialized agencies such as fire marshal offices bundling supplies into educational kits. The Washington County School District mid-year instructional and paper supplies IFB illustrates the typical procurement pattern: erasers appear as one line item within a much larger supplies portfolio, with estimated usage and specific manufacturer SKUs called out (referenced by product code rather than generic description), rather than as a dedicated procurement vehicle.

Geographic activity centers on Washington state and Oregon based on the two recent opportunities on record. Washington County School District issued an IFB for instructional and paper supplies with a response date of June 22, 2026, encompassing erasers as part of a seven-month supply contract running through January 18, 2027. The Oregon Department of the State Fire Marshal solicited educational resource kits for Fire Prevention Week distribution on August 21, 2026, with bids due August 28, 2026, though the kit contents and whether erasers are included are not specified in the source. Activity under this code appears light; erasers generate sustained procurement volume primarily as subordinate line items within school-supply aggregations rather than as dedicated opportunities, limiting the visibility of standalone eraser solicitations in state and local notice streams.
