UNSPSC 41104919: Laboratory HEPA filters

UNSPSC 41104919 Laboratory HEPA filters is a Commodity code that covers filtration components and media used in laboratory, water treatment, environmental monitoring, and specialized facility operations—though recent state and local solicitations show activity spanning broader filter and filtration-system procurement than the code name alone suggests. State and local governments buy replacement filter media (granulated activated carbon, disposable geotech filter capsules, pea gravel, and filter cartridges), filter vessels and equipment, gaskets, under-drain assemblies, and associated removal and disposal services under this code. Issuing bodies include state environmental protection agencies, county and city public works and water departments, and specialized facilities such as zoos and hatcheries. Activity appears episodic rather than continuous—each recent opportunity represents a distinct procurement cycle rather than recurring buys from a single jurisdiction.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, Kentucky, and Illinois. Fulton County, Georgia issued IFB/GS/AFRD/2606-1260224 on July 10, 2026, for fire and rescue tools and self-contained breathing apparatus maintenance (due July 28, 2026), which includes filtration and breathing-air system components alongside broader equipment.
