UNSPSC 47121814: Dust separator

UNSPSC 47121814 Dust separator is a Commodity code that captures floor-maintenance and cleaning equipment widely specified in state and local custodial procurement. In practice, school districts and municipal facilities are purchasing dust separators as components of or alongside floor scrubbers, carpet extractors, vacuums, and related commercial cleaning equipment rather than as standalone units. Recent solicitations show school districts and city procurement offices bundling dust separators with broader custodial equipment packages—reflecting the code's utility within larger fleet-renewal and facility-maintenance cycles.

State and local buyers under this code span school districts (Chippewa Valley Schools in Michigan, Cobb County Schools in Georgia, Hillsborough County Schools in Florida, Clarke County Schools in Georgia, Madison County Schools in Georgia, Gordon County Schools in Georgia, Forsyth County Schools in Georgia, Harlingen Consolidated ISD in Texas), counties and cities (Hillsborough County Fire Rescue in Florida, City of St. Petersburg, City of Fort Worth, City of Arlington), and cooperative purchasing organizations (Cooperative Purchasing Agency serving 35 Georgia school systems; AEPA serving 31 state agencies). Chippewa Valley Schools has posted custodial equipment ITBs repeatedly in October 2026, indicating active replacement cycles. School districts appear as the dominant buying segment, with equipment purchases typically following lifecycle replacement strategies. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Michigan, with secondary activity in Pennsylvania, Illinois, and multiple other states through cooperative vehicles. Representative recent opportunities include Chippewa Valley Schools' ITB 3.2627 (October 21, 2026 response date) for approximately 150 individual custodial equipment units including floor scrubbers, carpet extractors, vacuums, and related machines across 19 categories, and Clarke County School District's IFB 26-0814 (August 14, 2026) for industrial floor cleaning equipment and charging stations. The City of St. Petersburg's IFB 26-325 (October 20, 2026) for 68 line items of janitorial supplies shows municipal facilities also using this taxonomy, though dust separators typically appear embedded within equipment bundles rather than solicited as discrete line items.
