UNSPSC 60124313: Clay storage containers

UNSPSC 60124313 Clay storage containers is a Commodity code that encompasses clay and ceramic supplies, pottery equipment, and related services purchased by state and local recreation departments, school districts, and arts programs to support pottery studios and community craft facilities. State and local governments buy clay in bulk quantities (typically 4,000 to 5,000 pounds per order cycle), glazes, colorants, and specialty pottery materials under this code, alongside delivery and storage management. The issuing-body mix includes municipal parks and recreation departments, independent school districts, county recreation centers, and regional education cooperatives purchasing either as direct vendors or through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Recent solicitations also span equipment maintenance and repair services tied to pottery kilns and wheels, though the most granular opportunities focus on consumable supplies and their delivery logistics.

Gwinnett County, Georgia and the City of Orlando, Florida dominate recent activity under this code. The City of Orlando issued IFB27-0025 on October 6, 2026 (due November 5, 2026) for pottery supplies supporting a twenty-wheel studio with requirements for 4,000 to 5,000 pounds of clay on forty-five-day cycles and one-week delivery windows; that solicitation applies Veteran Business Enterprise preference and Small and Local Business Enterprise participation consideration. Gwinnett County issued two separate informal written quote (IWQ) solicitations in early September 2026 for pottery equipment — pottery wheels (IWQ 137154, due September 10, 2026) and electric kilns (IWQ 137725, due September 25, 2026) — both with delivery to Lenora Park Community Recreation Center in Snellville. The City of Tucson Parks and Recreation Department issued RFQ 226100 seeking pottery supplies and maintenance services across multiple recreation centers. Fort Bend Independent School District (Texas) solicited art supplies and equipment broadly under RFP27004KB (due September 25, 2026) without code-specific detail, and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Texas) listed educational supplies under cooperative EDACT2628 (due July 30, 2026). Activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with Georgia and Florida showing the most recent heavy procurement cycles.
