UNSPSC 52101503: Wool rugs

UNSPSC 52101503 Wool rugs (Commodity) covers carpet and flooring tile replacement and installation services in state and local facilities, grounded in recent solicitations that specify commercial-grade carpet tile, resilient flooring, and complete removal and disposal work across institutional and public properties. The code shows active procurement from school districts, universities, public housing authorities, and facility management bodies serving meeting rooms, media centers, residential apartments, and multipurpose spaces. Recent work emphasizes Shaw Respond Tile, Mannington Quadrant Collection, and Kinetex branded products installed with pressure-sensitive or low-VOC adhesive, floor preparation, cove base trim, and 2 to 3 percent attic stock allowances. Scope typically includes demolition of existing carpet or LVT flooring, substrate inspection and preparation, disposal, and labor supervision. Lump-sum fixed-fee contracts are standard, with work windows often constrained to summer break (June through August) for school facilities or phased scheduling for active commercial venues. All bids require performance bonds equal to 100 percent of contract price, workers' compensation coverage, general liability insurance ranging from $1 million to $2 million per occurrence, and compliance with prevailing wage or Davis-Bacon requirements when federally funded.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia (Georgia World Congress Center Authority Phase III and Phase IV carpet replacement IFBs due March 17, 2026 and August 3, 2026), Connecticut (City of Meriden Platt High School media center flooring IFB due June 3, 2026), Wisconsin (Community Development Authority of Madison RFB for Karabis Apartments due July 17, 2026, and University of Wisconsin Stevens Point Baldwin Hall flooring RFB due May 4, 2026), Michigan (Hazel Park Schools carpet replacement RFB due March 13, 2026), and Florida (Seminole County Schools sole-source Kinetex procurement with $800,000 estimated annual expenditure). Atlanta Public Schools, an independent school district serving 51,000 students, posted duplicate IFBs for district-wide carpet and flooring installation services (due March 18, 2026) covering broadloom, tile, resilient tiles, ceramic, vinyl sheet, and removal work on a per-square-foot or hourly rate basis with one-year initial term and four optional one-year renewals. The City of Philadelphia posted a micro purchase for general supplies for intake sites (due June 2, 2026) that included flooring-related items but lacks specificity on volume or product type. School districts and public authorities dominate the issuing-body mix; repeat buyers include the Georgia World Congress Center Authority and Atlanta Public Schools.
