UNSPSC 52141608: Garment steamer

UNSPSC 52141608 Garment steamer (Commodity) covers laundry and fabric-care equipment that state and local governments procure for institutional and correctional facilities, though recent solicitation activity shows limited direct engagement with garment steamers specifically. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span corrections departments, institutional facilities, and service-support operations within state government that manage laundry and garment maintenance for inmate populations, staff, or institutional linens. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) represents the primary recent buyer under this classification.

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB IW250253 in April 2026 for the procurement of single tumbler dryers, with a response deadline of May 18, 2026. The notice does not identify budget, quantities, site-visit requirements, or incumbent vendors; interested bidders must access the TDCJ Procurement Portal for full specifications and evaluation criteria. The primary point of contact is Daniela Castaneda at Daniela.castaneda2@tdcj.texas.gov or (936) 437-3885. Activity under this Commodity code appears concentrated in Texas institutional procurement, though the recent opportunity block does not support characterization of broader geographic or issuing-body patterns.
