UNSPSC 53102608: Infant swaddles or buntings or receiving blankets

Grouping of external wrap garments for infant warmth, comfort, and security

UNSPSC 53102608 Infant swaddles or buntings or receiving blankets is a Commodity code covering textile blankets and wrappings for infants and young children that state and local governments procure for social services, health programs, and institutional care. Recent solicitation activity shows state and local agencies buying finished woven wool blankets and related receiving textiles, typically in modest quantities through micro purchases and cooperative procurement vehicles. The City of Philadelphia's September 2026 quotation request for woven wool blankets exemplifies the scope — a $45,000 ceiling micro purchase awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder with annual CPI-U adjustment. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal procurement offices (cities), and the recent record suggests activity is driven by social services departments, health agencies, and institutional facilities requiring bulk textile supplies for client populations or emergency use.

Geographic activity under the code centers on Pennsylvania, based on the Philadelphia opportunity posted in September 2026 with a September 22 response deadline. The Philadelphia micro purchase represents the most recent documented state and local solicitation under this code. Vendors pursuing opportunities here should note that the City of Philadelphia requires electronic submission through PHLContracts, Consent and Authorization Agreements prior to bid closing, and standard commercial insurance (general liability minimum $500,000 per occurrence, auto liability $300,000 per occurrence). The City voluntarily collects LGBTQ Business Enterprise demographic data and accepts certification through the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce, Independence Business Alliance, Pennsylvania Unified Certification Program, Disability:IN, or WBENC, though completion is optional and does not affect award determination. Delivery terms are FOB Destination at quoted prices with no work commencing until City purchase order issuance.
