UNSPSC 42142806: Reprocessed/ sustainable vascular compression foot garments

In this classification, this commodity indicates a Reprocessed (Reprocessing medical devices is a process that involves cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and other procedures to make used devices safe for reuse) foot garment that utilizes compression specially for the Foot, and more particularly to a vascular compression system for enhancing flow of bodily fluid in the body part. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42142806 Reprocessed/sustainable vascular compression foot garments is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect purchases of compression garments. Instead, the solicitations document state and local demand for emergency medical equipment—primarily automated external defibrillators (AEDs), cardiac monitors, defibrillator batteries, and related emergency-response devices. School districts, county governments, state health agencies, and fire departments are the dominant buyers, with Cobb County School District (Georgia) appearing twice for AED and battery purchases in the June and July 2026 windows. The scope spans new AED equipment and replacement batteries (both OEM and qualified alternatives), compatible blood-pressure cuff and hose assemblies for specific defibrillator models, and miscellaneous medical supplies bundled with compression and support garments. Procurement vehicles include direct RFPs and RFQs from individual jurisdictions, cooperative purchasing agreements through NASPO ValuePoint and Sourcewell, and occasional sole-source or re-solicitation notices when vendor continuity is required for equipment compatibility.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia (Cobb County School District, State of Georgia RFQ, Harris County School District), Texas (Utica Community Schools, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, City of Dallas, Harris County), Colorado (sole-source LIFEPAK procurement), Florida (Marion County blood-pressure cuff re-solicitation), and Idaho/South Dakota (NASPO ValuePoint master-agreement RFP open to multi-state entities). A cooperative NASPO ValuePoint medical supplies RFP with a November 9, 2026 deadline anchors multi-jurisdictional procurement activity, while Sourcewell's Law Enforcement Equipment RFP (June 16, 2026 deadline) indicates broader public-sector equipment aggregation. Representative single-jurisdictional opportunities include Utica Community Schools' AED bid (October 28, 2026), Bryan County Board of Commissioners' cardiac monitor IFB (September 10, 2026), and Texas Health and Human Services Commission's miscellaneous medical supplies IFB (August 19, 2026, historical value $50,000 annually). The mismatch between the code's nominal garment scope and actual emergency-equipment purchasing signals either a cataloging error or a secondary use case not supported by the recent opportunity stream.
