UNSPSC 41103010: Blood bank refrigerators

UNSPSC 41103010 Blood bank refrigerators is a Commodity code that encompasses walk-in and laboratory-scale refrigeration and freezer equipment used for blood storage, evidence preservation, and specialized laboratory sample retention across state and local facilities. Recent state and local solicitations show that while the code nominally targets blood bank refrigeration, actual procurement activity spans walk-in freezer replacement and installation for evidence storage, emergency mobile refrigerated truck rentals for police evidence facilities, and laboratory-grade refrigeration units for state hospital blood operations. Issuing bodies include county departments (Sacramento County Sheriff's Property Warehouse, Escambia County Department of Animal Welfare), state agencies (California State Department of State Hospitals), municipal police departments (City of Tucson), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional needs (Sourcewell on behalf of Washington and Minnesota counties). The scope of recent work ranges from prefabricated walk-in freezer kits with disassembly and assembly labor to whole blood refrigeration equipment meeting medical and laboratory standards, to emergency mobile refrigerated trucks capable of rapid deployment for evidence storage.

Geographic activity centers in California, Florida, and the Pacific Northwest, with cooperative contracting frameworks extending availability across Washington, Minnesota, and participating jurisdictions nationwide. Representative recent opportunities include Sacramento County Sheriff's RFB 2026RFB0061 (posted July 2, 2026, due July 7, 2026) for a prefabricated walk-in frost-free evidence-storage freezer kit with mandatory pre-bid meeting and award anticipated July 10, 2026; California State Department of State Hospitals RFB-IS-26201048 (posted June 16, 2026, due June 24, 2026) for whole blood refrigeration equipment; the State of California RFB-IS-26201031 (posted June 3, 2026, due June 18, 2026) for a high-performance laboratory refrigerator; City of Tucson RFQ No. 250119 (posted February 11, 2026) for emergency freezer and refrigerator semi-truck rentals for TPD Evidence with an 18-hour mobilization requirement and contract value not to exceed $100,000; and Escambia County's walk-in freezer replacement ITQ (posted March 10, 2026, due March 9, 2026) at the Animal Welfare and Adoption Center in Pensacola, Florida. Recent activity indicates active procurement across state operational budgets, grant-funded county equipment acquisitions, and emergency standby contracting for specialized refrigeration services.
