UNSPSC 47121800: Cleaning equipment

UNSPSC 47121800 Cleaning equipment is a Class code encompassing pressure washers, de-icing systems, vegetation sprayers, laundry equipment, custodial supplies, and chemical cleaning products that state and local governments procure for facility and infrastructure maintenance across departments, school districts, and correctional institutions. State and local buyers under this code include state departments of corrections and procurement, county and municipal school districts, state cooperative purchasing ventures, and special-purpose warehouse cooperatives serving multiple school systems. The scope of work spans both capital equipment (pressure washers, laundry machines) and consumable supplies (trash bags, disinfectants, paper products, cleaning chemicals), often bundled with installation, training, repair, and rental services.
