UNSPSC 52131500: Curtains and draperies

UNSPSC 52131500 Curtains and draperies, a Class code, covers drapery and curtain products and services that state and local governments procure for facilities, auditoriums, and institutional settings. Recent opportunities show a mix of stage curtain purchases for educational facilities and specialized drapery cleaning, maintenance, and repair services for state hospitals and university buildings. School districts, state agencies, and higher education institutions drive the sourcing under this code, with work ranging from new curtain installation to ongoing maintenance contracts that include hemming, re-heading, re-pleating, rod and track repair, and cleaning of large inventory volumes.

Activity is concentrated in the Southeast and Midwest. Utica Community Schools in Michigan posted an IFB for stage curtains (Project B-2444-26) due July 8, 2026, through its Bonfire purchasing portal, requiring notarized disclosure statements and Iran sanctions compliance affidavits. The California Department of State Hospitals—Metropolitan issued IFB #26-20040-000 on May 20, 2026, for drapery and blinds cleaning and maintenance services across six DSH locations, seeking a contractor to clean approximately 9,500 widths of drapery annually, maintain 300 shower curtains and 475 privacy curtains, and perform repairs on a 30-hours-per-week minimum basis with 48-hour service response times; the contract runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with a $20,000 annual parts and materials allotment and five percent small business preference available. The University of Southern Mississippi's Facilities Planning and Management solicited sealed bids for Bennett Auditorium curtain replacement (RFP 26-33, due April 10, 2026). Recent activity does not include standout repeat buyers across multiple solicitations, though university facilities projects appear periodically under this code.
