UNSPSC 46181541: Chemical resistant gloves

A special kind of gloves that resist several types of chemical substances such as carboxylic acids, alcohols or acetones.

UNSPSC 46181541 Chemical resistant gloves is a Commodity code that captures a narrow slice of personal protective equipment procurement across state and local jurisdictions — primarily single-source and framework agreements for nitrile gloves, latex-free alternatives, and related hand protection used in food service, emergency response, and general departmental supply chains. Recent state and local opportunities show the code in active use for routine consumable purchasing: Granite School District (Utah) posted IFB JB27-300 on July 8, 2026, seeking foodservice nitrile gloves for its Child Nutrition Department with bids due July 17, 2026, under a one-year contract with four optional renewals; the Minnesota Multigovernmental Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP) issued RFP S1070000017226 on June 12, 2026, requesting full-line medical supply distributors capable of serving 8,000 government members across the United States, with gloves and personal protective equipment as a core commodity category and approximately $300 million in collective annual purchasing power, proposals due July 20, 2026. The issuing bodies span school districts, county health departments, state cooperative purchasing vehicles, and municipal supply chains — a diverse buyer base with no dominant repeat purchaser evident in the recent record. Buying is decentralized across Utah, Minnesota, Texas, and Florida, with school nutrition programs and emergency services representing the primary use cases alongside general-purpose departmental supply agreements. The code sees steady transactional volume but no large-dollar, high-stakes procurements; opportunities are typically award-to-lowest-responsive-bidder IFBs or RFQs with firm pricing for one to two years and modest renewal optionality, firm-fixed-price structures, and strict commodity specifications tied to food-service safety certifications or ANSI/OSHA standards where applicable.
