UNSPSC 48101539: Commercial use oil fat filtration unit

Mobile or static fat/oil filtration unit designed to filter the liquid cooking medium to remove solids from the oil that imparts flavour.

UNSPSC 48101539 Commercial use oil fat filtration unit (Commodity) does not map to the recent state and local solicitations under this code. The opportunities tagged to this code actually solicit commercial kitchen equipment, smallwares, food service supplies, cafeteria furniture, and maintenance services—none of which are filtration units. The mismatch suggests that procurement offices have applied this code incorrectly to kitchen-related purchases that fall outside the nominal scope of oil or fat filtration equipment. The source contains no recent opportunities for actual filtration units or similar equipment that would signal meaningful activity in the code's stated commodity category.

School districts, county boards of education, and independent school districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with secondary activity from county and city governments, transit authorities, and university systems. The geographic spread covers Texas (multiple school districts), Georgia (numerous county and school systems), Florida, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Oregon, Michigan, and Connecticut, with particularly dense activity in Georgia school nutrition programs. Representative recent solicitations include Dougherty County Board of Education soliciting sealed bids for cafeteria supplies and small equipment (Georgia, May 2026, IFB, due dates May 12 and May 28); Northside Independent School District requesting kitchen equipment, parts, supplies, and repair services across 132 schools (Texas, IFB 2026-078, due May 28); Mesquite Independent School District procuring walk-in cooler and freezer combo units with installation (Texas, RFP #2026-009, due June 4); Temple Independent School District soliciting kitchen equipment and fixtures for a new high school cafeteria including walk-in coolers, serving lines, and convection ovens (Texas, RFP-008-26, due March 25); and Tacoma School District #10 requesting annual kitchen hood inspections, cleaning, and on-call repair services (Washington, RFP26012F, due July 24). The recent opportunities reflect a sustained market for food service equipment procurement tied to school nutrition program operations and facility maintenance across state and local education agencies.
