About UNSPSC 42142607

UNSPSC 42142607 Medical micro syringes, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code bear little relation to medical micro syringes; instead, they span irrigation controllers and systems, occupational medical surveillance, duplex control panels for irrigation, MRO supplies, law enforcement equipment, and intraosseous infusion devices—none of which align with the narrow scope of micro syringes for precision injection or diagnostic applications. The one opportunity explicitly calling for medical supplies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, IFB HHS0017603 for medical supplies and equipment at the Abilene State Supported Living Center, posted July 15, 2026 with a July 30 deadline) includes gastrostomy feeding tubes, IV stabilization devices, catheters, and enteral feeding sets but does not reference micro syringes by name or specification. The issuing bodies across the recent postings are scattered—a state transit authority, a city public works department, state health agencies, county emergency management, and housing authorities—with no pattern of repeat buying in this commodity. No clear geographic concentration emerges; activity appears in Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Washington, with no sustained procurement signal in any single jurisdiction.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the recent opportunities suggests that micro syringes either see limited procurement volume through state and local channels or are regularly procured under different UNSPSC classifications. Firms pursuing this commodity should verify that their target jurisdictions are actually using this code for medical micro syringes before investing in response capacity. If the category does reflect actual buying at a particular agency or system (such as a large state health department or regional medical purchasing cooperative), that signal is not present in the recent opportunity feed.
