UNSPSC 53141506: Snaps

UNSPSC 53141506 Snaps is a Commodity code that, in recent state and local procurement activity, covers textile fastening components and related hardware used in the manufacturing of correctional facility uniforms, inmate clothing, and institutional textiles. The Illinois Department of Corrections' Centralia Correctional Center solicitation posted in September 2026 shows the code applied to a procurement for broadcloth, ripstop, poplin, nylon, batting, cotton duck, polyester mesh, and vinyl materials — items that fall outside the traditional snap-fastener scope but indicate state agencies are using this code for textile component procurement related to institutional apparel manufacturing. State and local buyers under this code primarily include corrections departments and similar institutional procurement offices that manufacture or source clothing and textiles for employee and resident populations. The Centralia facility is the primary identified recent buyer, issuing an IFB (invitation for bid) requiring vendor samples, detailed technical specifications, domestic-product preference compliance, and Illinois-manufactured-goods preference eligibility.

Recent activity is concentrated in Illinois, with the Centralia Correctional Center IFB due September 17, 2026 representing the only documented state and local opportunity under this code in the current dataset. The solicitation encompasses eight textile categories totaling approximately 121,000 yards across multiple material types, with contract performance through June 30, 2027, delivery at the facility's Sally Port on an F.O.B. destination basis, and award by lowest priced responsive and responsible bidder on a line-item or grouped basis. Award requires $1 million general liability insurance, Illinois vendor disclosure completion, and business enterprise or veterans small business program documentation; subcontractors exceeding $100,000 in annual value require prior written approval. The state prefers domestically manufactured products and may apply Illinois-manufactured-goods preference, reducing geographic competition for out-of-state vendors.
