UNSPSC 42132303: Insecticide-treated fabric

Insecticide-treated fabric is a type of textile that has been treated with insecticides to repel or kill insects, particularly mosquitoes. The insecticide is typically a pyrethroid insecticide, which is applied to the fabric using a variety of methods, such as impregnation, spraying, or dipping.

UNSPSC 42132303 Insecticide-treated fabric (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities tagged under this code—ranging from an ultrasound system procurement by Valencia College to ventilator maintenance services by Hillsborough County to a cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP by Sourcewell—involve medical equipment, surgical instruments, emergency medical devices, and law enforcement supplies that fall entirely outside the scope of insecticide-treated textiles and do not represent actual purchasing demand under the code's nominal category.

The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the opportunities posted under it suggests either systematic miscategorization in the state and local procurement system or incidental tagging errors. No issuing body is soliciting insecticide-treated fabric for vector control, medical bedding, protective garments, or any other application consistent with the code's definition. Without evidence of genuine procurement activity aligned to the category, the code presents no actionable opportunity signal at this time.
