UNSPSC 42151633 Dental retraction cord packing instruments (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. The single opportunity posted under this code—Valencia College's School of Allied Health Dental Hygiene Department's procurement of 4 iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc.—is a digital intraoral 3D imaging device acquisition and does not align with the code's nominal scope of dental retraction cord packing instruments. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the solicitation or that state and local procurement offices are applying this code to broader dental equipment acquisitions that fall outside its technical definition.

The Valencia College solicitation, posted April 13, 2026, with a due date of November 27, 2025 (note: the posting date follows the due date in the source record), was pursued as a sole source procurement for $143,196.00 under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057. No additional state or local opportunities under this code are present in the recent record, and no pattern of repeat buyers or geographic concentration is evident. This code does not currently show sustained procurement activity at the state and local level suitable for business development pursuit.
