UNSPSC 47131802: Floor finishes or polishes

UNSPSC 47131802 Floor finishes or polishes is a Commodity code covering consumable floor care products that state and local governments procure for routine facility maintenance across schools, county operations, and municipal services. Recent solicitations show school districts and counties buying brand-specific floor waxes, polishes, and strippers in bulk—typically 2,500 to 3,000 five-gallon pails annually—alongside broader custodial supply bundles that include floor finish as one line item among dozens. Clayton County Public Schools in Georgia has issued two concurrent IFBs for Spartan Millennia Bright Dura Gloss Laminate Floor Wax (2,500 pails estimated), Dougherty County Schools in Georgia solicited MPC Classic 250 Floor Wax or approved equivalent (555 five-gallon containers), and Fayette County Public Schools in Georgia awarded a contract to Brady Plus for EcoLab FaciliPro Gemini Pro 25 floor wax (1,495 pails). School districts dominate this code's recent activity, with counties and municipal agencies appearing less frequently; one county procurement (Hillsborough County, Florida) bundled floor finishes into a broader $765,679.84 janitorial and operational supplies ITB. Solicitations consistently require FOB Destination pricing, new sealed containers, firm pricing for 12 months, and delivery to multiple district locations on a scheduled basis; many carry cooperative purchasing clauses enabling other government entities to use the same contract terms.

Procurement activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida, with secondary representation from Texas and Idaho. Clayton County Public Schools posted two IFBs for Spartan Millennia floor wax due July 8, 2026 (RFP responses due June 2026), with a 15 percent Small Local Business Enterprise contracting goal. Fayette County Public Schools completed an RFQ for EcoLab floor stripper and wax on April 13, 2026, awarding Brady Plus through April 17, 2026; Dougherty County Schools issued an RFQ for MPC Classic 250 floor wax with responses due May 14, 2026; and Muscogee County Schools in Georgia solicited 33 line items of floor care supplies and equipment (among 104 total custodial items) with bids due May 22, 2026, and July 1, 2026 contract start. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas posted an RFP for custodial supplies (replacing an expiring contract) with a June 4, 2026 deadline, and Madison County Schools in Georgia issued an RFP for custodial supplies (including floor seal and finish) due June 2, 2026. The code also captures occasional concrete polishing and gymnasium floor re-coating services (Ada County, Idaho concrete polishing; Pinellas County, Florida gym floor re-coating), though those represent service contracts rather than consumable products.
