UNSPSC 52151667: Domestic ice mould

A type of mould, usually made of plastic, which when filled with water can be frozen to create pieces of ice sculpted to a specific shape

UNSPSC 52151667 Domestic ice mould is a Commodity code that ostensibly describes molds used to freeze ice, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal alignment with that nominal scope. The opportunities posted against the code include kitchen smallwares catalogs, silicone food trays, paper goods for school nutrition programs, kitchen equipment repair services, and commercial kitchen supplies — none of which are ice molds. The issuing bodies span county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County, Hillsborough County), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), school districts (Fulton County Schools, Atlanta Public Schools, Bartow County School System, Colquitt County School System, Baconton Community Charter School), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell). Most of the identifiable recent activity centers on school nutrition program procurement — smallwares, paper goods, food service equipment, and repair contracts — with school food authorities appearing as repeat soliciting bodies across Georgia and Texas.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Georgia (Gwinnett County, Fulton County Schools, Atlanta Public Schools, Bartow County School System, Colquitt County School System, Baconton Community Charter School) and Texas (City of Edinburg, Hillsborough County, Texas Health and Human Services Commission at Richmond), with limited Ohio activity (two silicon food tray solicitations with insufficient detail). Representative recent opportunities include Colquitt County School Nutrition's sealed-bid solicitation for kitchen smallwares across 295 line items with bids due June 15, 2026 (IFB SY26-27); Atlanta Public Schools' RFP for commercial kitchen equipment repair, preventive maintenance, and installation services with proposals due May 20, 2026, across eight service categories; and Bartow County School System's IFB for school nutrition program paper goods and supplies with bids due September 2, 2026. The code appears to be a miscategorization artifact in state and local procurement systems; pursuit of opportunities tagged to this code should focus on kitchen supplies, food service equipment, and school nutrition program contracts rather than on ice-making equipment.
