UNSPSC 60124325: Paper clay

White colored clay made by mixing paper, lime, rock powder and softener, and is used as teaching material for young children or in daily life crafts instead of natural clay.

UNSPSC 60124325 Paper clay is a Commodity code representing materials that state and local governments procure as part of broader art supply and educational equipment buys, particularly through school districts and parks departments. Recent solicitations show the code embedded within larger art supply contracts rather than purchased in isolation; state and local buyers source paper clay alongside brushes, paints, markers, craft materials, and related items to support K–12 instruction, after-school programs, and community recreation. School districts are the primary issuing bodies under this code, with parks and recreation departments secondary. Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas), Marion County School Board (Ocala, Florida), and Columbus Consolidated Government's Department of Parks and Recreation (Columbus, Georgia) have all posted art supply solicitations within the past six months that encompass paper clay and related commodities.

Activity clusters in Texas, Florida, and Georgia based on recent postings. Northside Independent School District issued IFB 2026096 for Art Supplies & Equipment districtwide, with bids due July 30, 2026, replacing an expiring contract and requiring vendors to respond to maintain future business eligibility. Marion County School Board solicited Bid #4150AM for art supplies including papers and craft materials for its Central Warehouse with a response deadline of January 14, 2026, covering approximately 215 line items with a ten-month contract term beginning March 1, 2026. Columbus Consolidated Government issued RFB No. 26-0014 seeking arts and craft supplies with an annual volume of $30,000 to $50,000 across Parks and Recreation divisions, with bids due February 25, 2026, for a two-year term with three optional one-year renewals. None of the recent opportunities explicitly state paper clay as a line item; the code assignment appears to reflect the broader art materials family rather than a standalone procurement focus.
