UNSPSC 53131632: Hot rollers

UNSPSC 53131632 Hot rollers is a Commodity code covering hair styling and salon equipment used in educational and professional settings. State and local governments procure hot rollers and related cosmetology tools through school districts establishing standing vendor agreements for classroom instruction and practical training in cosmetology programs. The issuing bodies are primarily independent school districts sourcing equipment for career and technical education curricula, with purchases structured as catalog discount bids to allow instructors and administrators flexibility in selecting vendors based on value across specific product lines.

Donna Independent School District in Cameron County, Texas, issued RFP 011326894 on March 21, 2026, for cosmetology equipment and supplies including hot rollers, curling irons, cold wave rods, and related styling tools for the 2026–2027 school year, with proposals due April 8, 2026. The district explicitly stated intent to award to multiple vendors, allowing district employees to contact vendors offering the best value for particular items. The contract term runs September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2027, with options to extend for up to two additional one-year periods if both parties agree. Pricing must include shipping and handling with F.O.B. Destination delivery unless negotiated otherwise, and the district does not guarantee minimum purchase quantities. Evaluation is based on selection, service, and price; vendors must provide customer references from the past five years and maintain appropriate insurance naming the district as additional insured.
