What UK government contracts fall under CPV 22000000?

Division 22 covers printed matter — books, forms, envelopes, security printing, signage print and educational materials. Print management and design services often appear under 79 instead, so track both if you are a print firm.

Councils (electoral print, council tax mailings), NHS trusts (patient letters, forms), schools and library services (books and learning materials), and electoral bodies are regular buyers. Electoral and security printing is a distinct, compliance-heavy niche with recurring contracts.

Tendarix indexes 19 contracts in this category from Contracts Finder, Find a Tender, the devolved-nation portals and 400+ council procurement sites, each with a plain-English AI summary.

How to win printed matter and related products tenders

Electoral print is won on accuracy, security accreditation and absolute deadline reliability — reference every statutory timescale in your method statement. For general print, buyers increasingly score carbon and waste credentials (FSC paper, ISO 14001), and hybrid mail or print-to-post capability gives you an edge on transactional work.
