UNSPSC 41103516: Arm hood

A type of device that absorbs the harmful toxic gas and releases out the gas and others generated from the chemical or physical reaction at the laboratory or research center to outside of building and others through the pipes.

UNSPSC 41103516 Arm hood is a Commodity code that covers specialized laboratory fume hoods, particularly those designed for hazardous chemical work, as well as modular casework and built-in millwork components for public facilities. The recent state and local opportunities under this code span decontamination and repair of perchloric acid fume hoods, design and installation of complete millwork packages for institutional construction, and poultry isolator equipment for research applications — a mixed set of solicitations reflecting both the code's technical scope and potential misalignment with actual procurement activity in some cases.

Issuing bodies include state agencies (Illinois Department of Agriculture, Georgia Department of Corrections via the State Financing and Investment Commission), higher-education research institutions (Texas A&M University), and purchasing cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas, Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington and multi-state jurisdictions). The code shows activity across the Southeast (Georgia), Midwest (Illinois), South (Texas), and Pacific Northwest (Washington), with Texas and multi-state cooperative vehicles appearing twice. Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Agriculture's emergency procurement for perchloric hood decontamination and repair services due July 25, 2026; the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission's RFQ for a complete millwork package (including casework and built-in cabinetry) for a new state prison facility in Davisboro, with SOQs due November 4, 2026 and installation running June 2027 through February 2028; and the Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's RFP for classroom furniture and supplies with an estimated total expenditure of $21,568,516.00 across a two-year term. The code's recent activity appears loosely clustered rather than concentrated, with several opportunities (the poultry isolator ITB and the law enforcement equipment RFP) showing weak alignment to the arm hood taxonomy.
