UNSPSC 53131668 Bath salts (Commodity) describes products for heat relief and wellness distribution, though recent state and local solicitation activity under this code centers on broad heat relief supply procurement rather than bath salts specifically. The City of Phoenix Finance Department, Central Procurement Division issued IFB 26-0046 in March 2026 for a five-year heat relief supplies contract serving vulnerable populations across over 60 City locations and Maricopa Association of Government Heat Relief Network sites. The solicitation encompasses a wide range of items including single-use and insulated water bottles, drink mix powders, outdoor equipment (hats, cooling towels, sunscreen), footwear, pet supplies, compression socks, instant shelters, coolers, and misting equipment — a portfolio that stretches well beyond the bath salts commodity classification. Contractors must maintain minimum stock levels, provide an online ordering platform with 48-hour delivery capability during business hours, carry $2,000,000 minimum general aggregate and $1,000,000 per occurrence liability coverage, and meet City of Phoenix Equal Employment Opportunity and Title VI Civil Rights Act compliance standards.

The code shows limited recent activity in state and local procurement. The single identified opportunity emerged from Phoenix, Arizona, with a non-mandatory pre-offer conference scheduled for December 1, 2025, written inquiry deadline of December 5, 2025, at 3:00 PM, and sealed offer deadline of December 12, 2025, at 2:00 PM. Pricing under the contract is firm and fixed for the initial two years, with potential annual increases requiring 60 days' written notice and supporting documentation. All supplies must be new, unused, and carry a minimum five-year warranty on design, workmanship, and material defects. Payment terms are 45 days in arrears via PDF invoice submission. The classification mismatch between the code name and the actual heat relief supply scope suggests this code may not be the primary driver of procurement activity for bath salts products in state and local markets.
