UNSPSC 10141609: Restraints

UNSPSC 10141609 Restraints, a Commodity code, addresses the procurement of physical restraint devices and systems used across state and local government operations. State and local agencies purchase restraints primarily for law enforcement and correctional applications — handcuffs, leg shackles, transport chains, and related restraint hardware for secure custody and prisoner transport. The code also encompasses restraint systems for medical and therapeutic facilities, including soft restraints for patient safety in psychiatric and acute-care settings, and industrial safety restraint equipment such as harnesses and securing devices for hazardous operations. Purchasing bodies include state departments of corrections, county sheriffs' offices, municipal police departments, state and county detention facilities, and healthcare systems operated by or under contract to local governments.

The source contains no recent state or local contract opportunities tagged to this code, precluding characterization of current geographic concentration or representative solicitations. Business development professionals should monitor cooperative purchasing vehicles serving law enforcement and corrections agencies — state sheriffs' associations, correctional administrators' networks, and regional public procurement consortia — as these bodies often aggregate restraint specifications and issue periodic RFQs or ITBs on behalf of member jurisdictions. The absence of recent visible activity may reflect the stability of supplier relationships for commodity restraint hardware or the use of standing state contracts and cooperative agreements that do not generate new public solicitations.
