UNSPSC 47111511: Laundry starching machine

Basic machine to starch clothes in laundry

UNSPSC 47111511 Laundry starching machine is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity among state and local procurement opportunities. The code nominally identifies a single appliance type, but the recent opportunities dataset contains no solicitations specifically seeking laundry starching machines or narrowly related commercial laundry pressing and finishing equipment. Of the nine state and local opportunities posted in the dataset from May through September 2026, only one involves a laundry appliance: Hillsborough County's June 2026 ITQ for kitchen and laundry appliances for fire stations, which includes a washing machine and dryer but no starching equipment. The remaining opportunities span custodial supplies, MRO master agreements, aquatic facility operations, nutrition-services equipment, on-call technical contracting, and workforce-development programs—none aligned with the code's scope.

Hillsborough County's June 2026 competitive quote (ITQ-26-00290) represents the only procurement in the recent data touching laundry equipment, but it sought a 4.2 cubic foot top-load washing machine and 7.2 cubic foot front-load dryer for fire stations, with delivery to Tampa, Florida and a project estimate of $41,183.79—a one-time, appliance-supply transaction rather than demand for starching machinery. The code itself does not appear to drive material state and local procurement volume, and no issuing bodies have solicited starching machines or related commercial laundry processing equipment during the June-through-September 2026 window. Firms evaluating this code should watch for future activity in municipal laundry operations, institutional facilities management, or regional purchasing cooperatives that may aggregate uniform and linen services across fire departments, hospitals, or corrections facilities, but current signals suggest the code warrants monitoring rather than active pursuit.
