UNSPSC 42142614: Hypodermic injection apparatus

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that represents the associated apparatus used in conjunction with a hypodermic injection in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901831.

UNSPSC 42142614 Hypodermic injection apparatus is a Commodity code that covers medical injection and infusion devices used across state and local healthcare, emergency services, and facility operations. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows substantial divergence from the code's narrow nominal scope: the most active opportunities involve specialized medical surveillance equipment, irrigation control systems, and emergency medical infusion devices rather than traditional hypodermic needles or syringes. The Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance services (examinations, testing, and record management for shipyard and ferry workers) through an RFP due October 9, 2026, while Marion County, Florida is seeking Vidacare EZ-IO intraosseous infusion systems for emergency medical response with a submission deadline of May 11, 2026. State and local issuing bodies across the code include county health departments and emergency services (Marion County), state transportation and ferry agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and state supported living centers (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), alongside municipal water and irrigation authorities. The code shows modest recent activity concentrated in specialized medical and occupational health procurement rather than routine medical supplies.

Geographic spread includes Florida, Washington, Texas, and Georgia, with recent opportunities concentrated in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest. Representative recent solicitations include Marion County's procurement of EZ-IO infusion devices (IFB 09SS-103, due May 11, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's medical surveillance services RFP for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for medical supplies and equipment for the Abilene State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017603, due July 30, 2026, closed). The code exhibits limited coherence: irrigation system upgrades and control panels posted by the Georgia World Congress Center Authority and the City of Pembroke Pines, Florida appear mistagged under this Commodity code and reflect procurement activity unrelated to medical injection apparatus. The actual medical-equipment activity under the code centers on emergency infusion systems, occupational health examination services, and specialized medical supplies, suggesting the code assignment may not reflect how state and local buyers currently classify or search for hypodermic injection apparatus procurement.
