UNSPSC 53131665: Moisturizing cream, baby/infant

A moisturizer is a cream that you put on your skin to make it feel softer and smoother. Gentle enough to cleanse sensitive newborn skin.

UNSPSC 53131665 Moisturizing cream, baby/infant is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure personal hygiene and grooming products for institutional use, particularly resale through prison commissaries and similar retail channels. The scope of work includes moisturizing creams and related grooming items specified to rigid standards for active ingredients, container type, size, and packaging. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, represents a significant buyer under this code, acquiring products on a multi-case basis for statewide distribution to institutional locations and resale to incarcerated individuals. Solicitations typically require detailed product specifications, mandatory sample submissions at bidder cost, barcode compatibility with institutional scanning systems, firm fixed pricing inclusive of shipping and fuel surcharges, and administrative fee pass-through. Respondents must carry minimum commercial general liability insurance and complete extensive compliance certifications addressing federal and state law, with disclosure of any artificial intelligence systems used in contract performance.

Recent activity in this code centers in Texas, where the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division issued Invitation for Bids No. 304T-26-652A1.3 on June 2, 2026, for personal hygiene and grooming products with response due May 26, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. Central Time. The IFB encompassed seven line items including antifungal powder, shaving cream, hairbrushes, antibacterial bar soap, panty liners, sanitary napkins, and tampons, with delivery to five primary Texas locations including Beeville, Huntsville, Rosharon, and Snyder. The solicitation permits respondents to claim state procurement preferences for Texas-manufactured goods, agricultural products, service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, and environmentally sensitive materials, though no mandatory set-asides are specified. Referenced acceptable vendors include Rugby, Geri-Care, Amerfresh, Barbasol, Bob Barker, and Always, with a minimum order quantity of 100 cases required for shaving cream. The initial contract term extends through August 31, 2027, with two renewal options through August 31, 2029.
