UNSPSC 42142811: Vascular compression wraps and bandages

In this classification, this commodity indicates a wrap or a bandage that provides compression for a body part of a person. The purpose is to reduce swelling and enhance flow of bodily fluid in the body part.

UNSPSC 42142811 Vascular compression wraps and bandages (Commodity) is not the active procurement focus reflected in recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code. The recent-opportunities block shows that state and local governments are instead soliciting automated external defibrillators (AEDs), AED accessories, cardiac monitoring equipment, and related emergency medical device service plans—products and services outside the nominal scope of vascular compression wraps. The mismatch suggests the code may be incorrectly applied to the identified opportunities, or the opportunities reflect a broader emergency medical equipment classification that diverges from the code's stated commodity definition. State and local buyers pursuing cardiac and AED equipment include school districts (Cobb County School District), county governments (Harris County, Marion County, Collier County, Florida), cities (Dallas, Tampa, Orlando), and regional transit authorities and special districts working through state cooperative purchasing vehicles (City of Eugene through Sourcewell, Sourcewell-brokered cooperatives for Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington and participating jurisdictions nationwide).

Recent solicitations demonstrate activity across multiple states and geographic regions, with notable clustering in Florida (Marion County, Collier County, Orlando, Tampa) and Texas (Harris County, Dallas, City of Tampa). A representative AED procurement appears in Harris County's RFP for Automatic External Defibrillators and Related Items, posted April 24, 2026, with proposals due May 18, 2026. The City of Orlando Fire Department conducted a sole-source procurement (S26-0394) for an X-Series Defibrillator/Monitor Worry-Free Service Plan covering 65 units with a contract value of $318,123.66, posted April 21, 2026, with Zoll Medical Corporation as the identified vendor. Cobb County School District issued a quote request (Q27009) for AED equipment, batteries, and accessories with an estimated expenditure of approximately $50,000, due July 6, 2026. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 (due June 16, 2026) for Law Enforcement Equipment, with participating jurisdictions across Washington and other states, though the law enforcement equipment scope appears tangential to vascular compression wraps. The code shows no recent activity directly aligned with vascular compression wraps and bandages; business development professionals should verify code accuracy against actual procurement intent before pursuing opportunities under this UNSPSC classification.
