UNSPSC 42142615: Syringe accessories

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that provides accessories for a device consisting of a tube with a nozzle and piston or bulb for sucking in and ejecting liquid in a thin stream in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Syringe accessories under 21 CFR 872.6770 and under FDA product code EJI. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901831.

UNSPSC 42142615 Syringe accessories (Commodity) covers needles, hubs, plungers, and related components that state and local governments procure as part of broader medical supply and emergency response provisioning. Recent solicitations show this code appearing within larger purchases of emergency medical equipment and consumables by health agencies, municipalities, and public safety departments rather than as standalone syringe-accessory procurements. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) purchased syringes alongside gastrostomy feeding tubes, catheters, and IV stabilization devices for Abilene State Supported Living Center under IFB HHS0017603 (bids due July 30, 2026), while the City of Tampa's Fire Department Rescue Division included medical consumables and supplies in a $700,000 medical and first aid supplies bid (Bid 26-P-00145, SLBE set-aside). The code sits within procurement activity driven by state health departments, municipal fire and emergency services, and long-term care facilities rather than specialized medical distributors or manufacturers. Issuing bodies include state health agencies, city emergency response departments, and county health or human services jurisdictions.

The most recent activity clusters in Texas and Florida, with secondary geographic spread across other states where emergency medical and health services procurement occurs. Representative recent solicitations include the HHSC bid for medical supplies for a state-supported living center in Abilene, Texas (IFB, July 30, 2026 response date) and the City of Tampa's sheltered-market medical and first aid supplies procurement for the Fire Department Rescue Division (ITB, March 13, 2026 response date, reserved for certified Small Local Business Enterprises with a 5% SLBE bid discount). The opportunities reflect steady baseline demand for emergency medical consumables and health-facility supplies rather than concentrated seasonal or project-driven buying patterns.
