UNSPSC 47131806: Furniture polish or waxes

UNSPSC 47131806 Furniture polish or waxes, a Commodity code, covers cleaning and maintenance consumables that state and local governments procure for facility operations—though recent solicitations show the code capturing broader custodial supply procurement activity than the nominal category name suggests. School districts and county governments are the primary buyers, soliciting under this code for janitorial consumables including detergents, disinfectants, floor finishes, trash bags, hand soap, sanitizer, rags, mops, brooms, brushes, and paper products for delivery across multiple facilities. Cobb County School District (Georgia) issued an IFB for custodial equipment with an estimated contract value of $550,000 (due September 23, 2026). Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) solicited janitorial and operational supplies for 47 fire stations under ITB 26-00319, with an estimated one-year contract value of $765,679.84 (due July 24, 2026). Northside Independent School District (Texas) issued RFP 2026-071 for custodial supplies to replace an expiring contract (due June 4, 2026). Madison County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited custodial supplies through RFP CSUP 05-26 for eight school facilities serving approximately 5,415 students and 621 staff (due June 2, 2026). The code sees activity across the Southeast and Texas, with school districts appearing as repeat buyers across multiple states and counties managing their own procurement cycles independently.

Recent opportunities reflect standard state and local procurement practices: fixed contract periods with option for renewal, firm pricing locked for 12 months, free-on-board destination pricing with all shipping included, drug-free workplace certifications, and proof of insurance requirements. Delivery windows typically span 5 to 10 business days, with coordination through county project managers or district procurement offices. Award criteria weight contractor qualifications, relevant experience, references, and cost relatively equally. No set-asides or incumbent vendor preferences are named in the recent postings, and bidders must be authorized distributors capable of providing backorder and recall information. The code shows consistent activity among independent school districts and county operational departments managing large multi-facility networks.
