UNSPSC 52131500: Curtains and draperies

UNSPSC 52131500 Curtains and draperies, a Class code, encompasses theatrical stage drapery, institutional shower curtains, and maintenance services for window coverings and installed draperies that state and local governments procure for performance venues, health facilities, transit agencies, and school districts. Recent solicitations span stage-ready theatrical drapery (velour borders, legs, scrims, projection screens, and cyc backdrops with detailed hem and grommet specifications), institutional non-ligature shower curtains fabricated to meet fire and safety codes, and as-needed supply-and-maintenance contracts for window blinds, shades, and roller coverings at operational facilities. Issuing bodies include county arts and culture divisions (Salt Lake County), state health authorities (Oregon Health Authority), transit authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority), school districts (Sarasota County Schools, Utica Community Schools), and state hospital systems (California Department of State Hospitals). The code shows activity across multiple jurisdictions rather than dominance by a single repeat buyer, though Salt Lake County posted two related theatrical drapery RFBs in a single posting cycle.

Geographic activity concentrates in Utah, Oregon, California, Florida, and Michigan based on recent postings. Salt Lake County Contracts and Procurement solicited stage drapery for the Capitol Theatre and the Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center, both due October 23, 2026, under RFB notices with low-bid award criteria and optional preference points for employee health care and veteran hiring. The State of Oregon Health Authority issued an ITB for non-ligature shower curtains at its Salem and Junction City campuses, due October 27, 2026, with a five-year initial term and Oregon Supplies and Services preferences supporting in-state manufacturing. The Orange County Transportation Authority requested quotes for window covering supply and maintenance services at two facilities on an as-needed basis with a $35,000 three-year budget, due October 13, 2026. School districts in Michigan (Utica Community Schools) posted separate RFBs for stage curtains at two high schools in June and August 2026, and the Sarasota County School Board sought theatrical stage rigging, lighting, sound systems, and curtain installation and maintenance services under an ITB with two-hour emergency response requirements. The California Department of State Hospitals advertised drapery and blinds cleaning and maintenance services across six locations with a $20,000 annual materials allotment, due June 8, 2026.
