UNSPSC 47131812: Air freshener

UNSPSC 47131812 Air freshener (Commodity) encompasses battery-powered diffusers and related odor-control products purchased by state and local governments for facility maintenance and custodial operations. Recent solicitations show the code's scope extends beyond standalone air fresheners into broader custodial supply bundles where diffusers appear alongside cleaning chemicals, paper products, floor care supplies, and hand sanitizer. The buying base spans school districts, municipal governments, and regional purchasing cooperatives serving educational institutions. School districts dominate activity under this code, procuring supplies for multi-facility operations; cities and counties round out the issuing body mix.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with Philadelphia also entering the market. Madison County Board of Education in Danielsville, Georgia issued RFP CSUP 05-26 (due June 2, 2026) for custodial supplies across eight school facilities; Muscogee County School District in Columbus, Georgia solicited bids for custodial supplies and equipment across 104 line items with responses due May 22, 2026. The City of Philadelphia posted small order purchase B2727375 (due July 8, 2026) for battery-powered ScentAir diffusers under a Requirements contract structure. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas conducted a catalog discount RFP (CUS2223) serving multiple member districts with estimated total expenditures of $5,220,140 and prior participation from 49 vendors. Contracts typically run one year with annual renewal options; school districts weight contractor qualifications, experience, and references equally with cost and enforce firm pricing for 12 months. Insurance requirements vary by jurisdiction but generally exceed $500,000 per occurrence for general liability.
