UNSPSC 42151641: Dental wax carvers

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used to cut wax associated with dental impressions. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42151641 Dental wax carvers, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department sole source procurement for 4 iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc—is a digital intraoral scanning technology acquisition, not dental wax carver procurement. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state or local system or a fundamental drift between the code's intended use and current procurement tagging practice. The iTero Lumina Scanners are 3D imaging devices for creating digital representations of patients' teeth and gums, representing clinical and educational infrastructure investment rather than hand tools or carving instruments traditionally associated with dental wax work.

The single solicitation occurred in Florida, posted April 13, 2026, with a formal due date of November 27, 2025 and a total acquisition cost of $143,196 for four units. Valencia College's procurement was conducted as a sole source acquisition under Florida Administrative Code and Florida Statute 287.057, with a seven business day public posting period for review of the sole source justification. No other state or local opportunities under this Commodity code appear in recent activity. The code does not surface active, competitive state and local procurement demand for dental wax carvers or closely related services. Firms should verify whether the code accurately represents their service lines or investigate whether state and local buyers are tagging similar work under different UNSPSC classifications.
