UNSPSC 51241809 Aluminum chlorohydrex/formaldehyde/menthol/zinc undecylenate is a Commodity code that in recent state and local solicitations covers water and wastewater treatment chemicals, primarily aluminum-based coagulants used in municipal treatment processes. The code sees limited recent activity focused on specific chemical products for water infrastructure rather than the full scope suggested by the nominal code name. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include municipal water and wastewater utilities, with the City of Scottsdale Water Resources Department and the City of Austin Water utility posting recent opportunities. Work being solicited includes supply and delivery contracts for aluminum chlorohydrate solution used in potable water treatment and liquid aluminum sulfate (alum) used in phosphorus removal during wastewater treatment, with bidders required to meet NSF approval, AWWA standards compliance, and demonstrate manufacturer or authorized reseller status along with adequate storage and distribution capacity.

Recent opportunities cluster in Arizona and Texas. The City of Scottsdale Water Resources Department issued RFP 27RFP105 for aluminum chlorohydrate 50% solution delivery to the Chaparral Water Treatment Plant with proposals due October 30, 2026. The City of Austin issued IFB 2200 CSH1061 for liquid aluminum sulfate with bids due August 25, 2026, specifying 179,200 gallons estimated annual consumption, NSF and AWWA B403 compliance, a primary distribution facility within 500 miles of Austin, a minimum 9,000-gallon inventory requirement, and local business and small business preference discounts of up to 5% for contracts under $500,000. Both solicitations require bidders to carry specified insurance coverage and provide municipal wastewater or water treatment references. A third opportunity in the recent-opportunities block—City of Tampa Fire Rescue medical aid supplies (ITB 25-P-00157)—is unrelated to water treatment chemistry and does not reflect current activity under this code.
