UNSPSC 52151645: Domestic pastry brush

UNSPSC 52151645 Domestic pastry brush is a Commodity code that captures small kitchen hand tools and utensils purchased by school districts and other state and local food-service operators. Recent solicitations show state and local governments acquiring pastry brushes as part of broader smallwares procurement — typically bundled with measuring cups, scoops, sheet pans, knives, serving utensils, aprons, and cleaning supplies to equip school cafeterias and child nutrition programs. The code sits within food-service equipment purchasing activity driven primarily by K–12 school districts and school nutrition departments, which source these items annually to support breakfast and lunch programs serving thousands of students. Individual pastry brushes appear as line items in larger competitive bids rather than standalone procurements; school districts specify quantities per site, require NSF certification or brand equivalents, and consolidate purchasing across multiple smallwares categories to minimize vendor count and delivery complexity.

School districts across Georgia, Missouri, and Texas dominate recent activity. Colquitt County School Nutrition issued an IFB in May 2026 for 295 line items of kitchen smallwares across ten equipment categories, including pastry brushes among food preparation tools, with deliveries to multiple school sites and a contract term running through School Year 2026-2027 plus optional extensions. Baconton Community Charter School issued a sealed-bid solicitation in June 2026 for kitchen smallware including pastry brushes, thermometers, scoops, and small equipment, with bids due August 3, 2026. Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services solicited approximately 100 line items of small equipment in March 2026, including specialized food preparation tools such as pan grabbers and dishers alongside domestic pastry brushes, with award scheduled for June 4, 2026. Henry County Schools and Houston County School District issued similar IFBs in March 2026 for cafeteria smallwares to service 52 and multiple school nutrition locations respectively, with May and April bid deadlines. All require firm fixed pricing for the contract term, weekly or as-needed deliveries, USDA compliance including Buy American provisions, and NSF certification or manufacturer-approved equivalents.
