UNSPSC 60121215: Low viscosity removable glass or ceramic paint

UNSPSC 60121215 Low viscosity removable glass or ceramic paint is a Commodity code, but recent state and local opportunities show that the code is being used to solicit pottery supplies, equipment, and maintenance services rather than paint products. State and local governments buying under this code are purchasing clay in bulk (4,000–5,000 pounds per cycle), glazes, colorants, pottery wheels, kilns, and kiln maintenance and repair services to support recreation centers, community studios, and school art programs. The City of Orlando, Gwinnett County Parks and Recreation, the City of Tucson Parks and Recreation Department, and Fort Bend Independent School District are the issuing bodies represented in recent opportunities. Issuing bodies have included cities, counties, independent school districts, and regional education service centers; purchasing vehicles span traditional competitive bids (IFB, RFQ, RFP) and cooperative education procurement arrangements.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the Southeast and Southwest. Gwinnett County, Georgia appears twice in recent activity (September 2026), soliciting pottery wheels and kilns for parks recreation centers; the City of Orlando issued an IFB for pottery supplies with a November 5, 2026 response date; the City of Tucson Parks and Recreation Department issued an RFQ for pottery supplies and maintenance (due July 13, 2022); and Fort Bend Independent School District, Texas, issued an RFP for art supplies and equipment (September 25, 2026 response date). A regional cooperative purchasing vehicle, Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas, issued a catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) for educational activities and supplies with a July 30, 2026 response date and an estimated two-year value of $40.677 billion across its network. Contract terms typically run one to five years with renewal options. Responses to fixed-price IFBs and RFQs require insurance compliance (Workers' Compensation, General Liability, Automobile Liability), local service representatives, and submission of references; some buyers apply Veteran Business Enterprise or Small and Local Business Enterprise preferences.
