UNSPSC 47131503: Chamois or wash leathers

UNSPSC 47131503 Chamois or wash leathers is a Commodity code that nominally covers specialized cleaning and finishing textiles; however, the most recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no relevant solicitations aligned with the product category. The three most-recent opportunities posted under this code include a facility relocation notice from Williamson County Purchasing Department (not a procurement), a janitorial and operational supplies ITB from Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida seeking consumable supplies for fire rescue operations, and an automotive and light truck repair parts agreement from the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida. None of these solicitations involve chamois or wash leathers as described in the code definition, suggesting the code is being used inconsistently or the category sees minimal genuine activity in state and local procurement.

The geographic activity detected is limited to Texas and Florida, with Hillsborough County and Sarasota County School Board both in Florida and Williamson County in Texas representing the issuing bodies. The Hillsborough County ITB2600319 (due July 24, 2026) carries an estimated contract value of $765,679.84 for one year of janitorial and operational supplies, while the Sarasota County Schools Bid #26-0124 (due February 12, 2026, awarded) established a framework for automotive parts discounts across 19 manufacturers with no specified minimum purchase guarantee. Neither opportunity reflects procurement of chamois or wash leathers. This code appears to carry little actionable opportunity in current state and local procurement activity; prospective vendors should monitor whether the code experiences reclassification or whether future solicitations align the tagging with actual commodity movement.
