UNSPSC 53131606: Deodorants

UNSPSC 53131606 Deodorants is a Commodity code capturing personal hygiene products that state and local governments procure for institutional distribution, inventory resale, and employee or resident use. The work being solicited includes antiperspirant deodorants in bulk quantities for delivery to senior services facilities, correctional-institution commissaries, and similar settings. State and local buyers under this code include county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), state correctional departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and other institutional service providers. Solicitations typically specify product scent, gender orientation, and delivery timelines; most require unit pricing on a delivered basis with two-decimal-place precision and submission via email, fax, or electronic procurement portals. Minimum vendor experience in similar institutional supply is commonly required.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas. Gwinnett County posted an informal written quote for antiperspirant deodorants (36 cases) alongside complementary personal hygiene items, with quotes due October 20, 2026 and delivery required by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited regular scent deodorant for men through its Procurement Portal on Bonfire Hub, with bids due October 19, 2026, for resale in TDCJ commissaries statewide. Several Ohio procurement records from July through October 2026 identify deodorant in the solicitation title but lack sufficient detail to characterize scope, issuing body, or opportunity viability. The code shows modest but consistent recent activity concentrated in institutional bulk supply rather than retail or small-order procurement.
