UNSPSC 53131652: Hand mirror

Handheld reflective device used for personal hygiene or observation.

UNSPSC 53131652 Hand mirror is a Commodity code that captures mirrors and reflective accessories procured by state and local governments, though recent activity under this code reflects a much broader scope of cosmetology and salon equipment procurement for educational institutions. School districts are buying mirrors as components within larger salon and cosmetology lab setups — styling stations equipped with unframed mirrors and other salon infrastructure for vocational training programs — rather than standalone mirror units. The issuing bodies are predominantly independent school districts and county school systems establishing or expanding career and technical education (CTE) programs in cosmetology and barbering. Vendors responding to these solicitations must typically hold multi-year experience in salon and educational equipment installation, maintain commercial general liability insurance, and demonstrate compliance with prevailing wage and federal funding oversight when federal dollars fund the project.

Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) and Donna Independent School District (Texas) represent the recent geographic footprint. Hillsborough County posted an Invitation to Quote (ITQ) on April 13, 2026, due February 24, 2026, for salon stations including styling stations and backwash units with mirrors and matte black finishes for Plant City High School, with a $50,000 expenditure threshold suggesting project value near that level. Donna ISD in Cameron County, Texas, issued a Request for Proposals on March 21, 2026, due April 8, 2026, for cosmetology equipment and supplies under a catalog discount bid method for the 2026-2027 school year, with the intent to award multiple vendors and extend for up to two additional one-year periods. Both solicitations emphasize educational end-use, compliance with federal funding rules where applicable, and multi-year contract frameworks that create repeat ordering potential for vendors who establish preferred-vendor status.
