UNSPSC 48101620: Commercial use coffee filter

Commercial coffee brewing machines use filtration supplies to contain grounds during brewing process.

UNSPSC 48101620 Commercial use coffee filter is a Commodity code that shows limited recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code include water-cooler rentals, miscellaneous kitchen supplies, kitchen equipment and parts, trash bags, coffee-machine installation and maintenance services, and food-service equipment—none of which represent direct purchases of coffee filters themselves. The issuing bodies span a mix of transportation authorities, counties, school districts, cities, and state universities; Orange County Transportation Authority (California), Hillsborough County (Florida), Northside Independent School District (Texas), City of Richardson (Texas), Georgia Institute of Technology, and Middle Georgia State University all appear in the recent record. The geographic spread covers California, Florida, Texas, and Georgia.

The one opportunity with the closest nominal connection to the code is the Georgia Institute of Technology's March 2026 IFB for Coffee Machines (Commercial & Residential) Installation & Maintenance Services (PE50300RFQ2026000000294, due March 31, 2026), which addresses coffee-equipment services rather than filters. Northside Independent School District's May 2026 IFB 2026-078 for Kitchen Equipment, Parts, Supplies, Rentals, Repairs & Services (due May 28, 2026) covers a broad range of kitchen consumables and equipment across the district's 132 schools and support sites but does not isolate filter procurement. The mismatch between the code's narrow focus and the broad scope of recent solicitations suggests that state and local coffee-filter demand, if present, is either bundled into larger kitchen-supply or equipment-service contracts or purchased through cooperative agreements and standing orders that do not generate discrete solicitation notices. Firms targeting filter sales should consider pursuing bundled kitchen-supply RFPs and establishing preferred-vendor relationships with school districts and institutional food-service operations rather than expecting standalone filter solicitations under this code.
