Manufacture of 4GV/X21/S UN-Rated Boxes

The contract calls for the manufacture of 1,260 plastic boxes adhering to the 4GV/X21/S specification, designed for the safe transport of hazardous materials in compliance with UN performance standards and ASTM D3951 packaging requirements. These containers must meet rigorous safety and durability benchmarks to ensure secure handling and transit of dangerous goods under various environmental and mechanical stresses. The production is being carried out under a subcontract arrangement through the Defense Logistics Agency, a component of the Department of Defense, indicating the critical role these boxes play in military or defense-related logistics. The work falls under NAICS code 322211, which corresponds to plastic box and container manufacturing, and the contract was posted on July 20, 2026. While specific delivery locations and point of contact details are not provided, the equipment will be used in contexts requiring certified hazardous material packaging, likely supporting defense operations or supply chains. The absence of set-aside designations suggests the subcontract is open to eligible contractors without restrictions based on business size or socioeconomic categories, and performance is expected to align with federal defense logistics standards without geographic limitations beyond the operational needs of the agency.
