UNSPSC 47131704: Institutional soap or lotion dispensers

UNSPSC 47131704 Institutional soap or lotion dispensers is a Commodity code that encompasses touch-free and manual foam soap and lotion dispensers for institutional use, along with refill soaps and sanitizers in institutional volumes. State and local governments procure these dispensers as part of broader janitorial and custodial supply contracts, including supplies for fire departments, school districts, senior centers, and county facilities. The issuing bodies span county governments (Hillsborough County Florida, Gwinnett County Georgia, Jackson County Missouri, Muscogee County Georgia), independent school districts (Northside Independent School District Texas, Madison County Schools Georgia, Muscogee County School District Georgia, Rockwood School District Missouri), municipalities (City of Philadelphia, City of Newark New Jersey), and cooperative purchasing consortia (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative Texas). Recent solicitations show dispensers quoted as line items within larger consumable supply contracts rather than as standalone procurements, with the exception of the Philadelphia Free Library's March 2026 small order purchase (Bid B2626689) for 30 Renown TFX Touch-Free Soap Dispensers and 300 foam soap refills due April 8, 2026.

Activity concentrates in the Southeast and Midwest, with recent opportunities in Georgia (Gwinnett County, Madison County Schools, Muscogee County), Florida (Hillsborough County), Missouri (Jackson County, Rockwood School District), Texas (Northside Independent School District, Region 7 Cooperative), and the Mid-Atlantic (Philadelphia, Newark). Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted an ITB for janitorial and operational supplies (ITB 26-00319) due July 24, 2026, estimated at $765,679.84 for fire rescue department operations across 47 stations. Gwinnett County Schools solicited industrial dish detergents and sanitizers (PE77023NONST2026000000633) due July 7, 2026 with a pre-quote conference on June 15, 2026, specifying compatible dispenser installation costs when equipment incompatibility arises. Muscogee County School District's competitive bid for custodial supplies and equipment (PE55220NONST2026000000030) due May 22, 2026 included floor care supplies and tools across 104 line items, with contract commencement July 1, 2026. Madison County Schools (CSUP 05-26) and Jackson County Missouri (bid 26022) both solicited multi-year custodial supply agreements in spring 2026, seeking foam hand soap with dispensers and hand sanitizer with dispensers among consumable items for school and municipal operations.
