UNSPSC 42131505: Patient infant shirts or vests

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used as a shirt or vest by infants undergoing medical treatment. US FDA regulates Patient infant shirts or vests under 21 CFR 878.4040 and under FDA product code FYB. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 610990.

UNSPSC 42131505 Patient infant shirts or vests (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with the actual work being solicited under this code in recent state and local opportunities. The single recent opportunity on file is the Illinois Veterans Home Quincy's procurement of TENA brand incontinence briefs—adult incontinent-care products entirely outside the code's nominal scope of infant apparel. State and local procurement bodies are not currently soliciting patient infant shirts or vests under this code; the mismatch suggests either a classification error by the issuing body or that this Commodity code does not reflect meaningful recent buying activity in state and local markets.

The Illinois Veterans Home Quincy (a state-operated facility in Adams County, Illinois) issued an IFB on April 28, 2026, with a response deadline of May 1, 2026, for TENA Ultra and Super briefs in estimated quantities of 300 cases each, to be delivered within thirty days of order on FOB destination terms through June 30, 2027. No incumbent vendor is identified, no set-aside restrictions apply, and the contract term may extend up to ten years. Without additional recent opportunities in the source data, no geographic or issuing-body pattern can be discerned. Firms pursuing this Commodity code should verify with state and local procurement offices whether infant apparel is actually being solicited under 42131505 or whether a different code better captures the institutional healthcare supplies market where activity is demonstrably occurring.
