UNSPSC 52151662: Mesh dipper

A device that is made in small rubbish carrying basket-shape to separate the rice from foreign substances and remove the moisture. It is used to make with the bamboo strip, bush clover and others, but the wire and synthetic resin are generally used in recent days.

UNSPSC 52151662 Mesh dipper is a Commodity code covering food-service portioning and preparation tools—specifically small utensils and equipment that school districts, municipal food programs, and county nutrition services procure to support meal preparation and service operations. State and local governments soliciting under this code buy mesh dippers alongside broader smallwares categories including scoops, spoodles, measuring cups, thermometers, pan grabbers, serving pans, and food-storage containers, typically bundled into annual refresh procurements for child nutrition programs, cafeteria operations, and CACFP (Child and Adult Care Food Program) meal service. Recent activity shows school districts as the primary issuing bodies—Colquitt County, Henry County, and Baconton Community Charter School in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri; Atlanta Public Schools; and Houston County in Georgia have all posted IFBs and competitive bids for smallwares within the past three months. These purchases are part of routine school-year supply cycles that run July through June and typically include renewal and extension options spanning multiple one-year terms based on vendor performance. Set-asides and preferences vary by jurisdiction: some solicitations apply no restrictions, while others prioritize domestic manufacturing under USDA Buy American provisions or, in the case of Texas municipal procurement (City of Edinburg), include local-vendor preferences under state law.

Activity is concentrated in Georgia (Colquitt County, Henry County, Houston County, Atlanta Public Schools, Baconton Community Charter School) and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), with additional representation in Texas (City of Edinburg CACFP meal program) and Florida (Hillsborough County). Representative recent opportunities include Colquitt County School Nutrition's sealed-bid IFB for kitchen smallwares posted May 14, 2026, with bids due June 15, 2026 (295 line items across ten equipment categories, delivery to multiple school sites, initial term July 1, 2026 through end of school year with four one-year renewal options); Henry County Schools' IFB for cafeteria smallwares to 52 nutrition locations, released March 18, 2026, with bids due May 5, 2026 (weekly Monday–Friday deliveries, no minimum order requirements, initial one-year term beginning July 1, 2026, with four optional one-year renewals); and Rockwood R-VI School District's competitive bid for small equipment posted March 31, 2026, with award on June 4, 2026 (approximately 100 line items, NSF-certified products, multiple award winners designated for each line item with both primary and secondary vendors). The City of Edinburg CACFP RFP (posted July 16, 2026, due August 4, 2026) adds municipal and nonprofit food-service context beyond schools, requiring daily meal delivery to 400 children with local-vendor preference when bids fall within 5 percent of lowest cost. Activity in the code reflects consistent, recurring demand tied to school-year cycles and demonstrates sustained purchasing across the K–12 school-district spectrum.
