UNSPSC 60122504: Paper filters

UNSPSC 60122504 Paper filters is a Commodity code, but the single recent state and local opportunity posted under it does not reflect paper filters — Columbus Consolidated Government's Parks and Recreation Department issued RFB No. 26-0014 in February 2026 seeking arts and craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for after-school programs, community schools, seniors, and special populations divisions. The code shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope, and this mismatch suggests either sparse procurement under the true commodity definition or systematic miscoding in the issuing jurisdiction's system.

Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) is the only issuing body in the recent-opportunities block. The solicitation used a Request for Bids (RFB) notice with a response deadline of February 25, 2026, at 2:30 PM Eastern Time, and contemplated a two-year contract term with three optional one-year renewals. The expected annual spend of $30,000 to $50,000 reflects modest volume; the city reserved the right to award to multiple vendors and to use comparable cooperative contracts if lower-cost alternatives emerged. No set-asides or incumbent information were disclosed. The geographic source is limited to Georgia in this dataset. Until additional recent opportunities appear under this code from other state and local jurisdictions, the activity signal is weak; firms targeting paper-filter procurement should verify whether their target customers classify such products under a different UNSPSC code or whether filter solicitations are too infrequent to generate a clear pattern in this particular taxonomy.
