About UNSPSC 42151647

UNSPSC 42151647 Dental absorbent holders is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department's November 2025 sole source procurement—involves acquisition of iTero Lumina intraoral scanning devices rather than dental absorbent holders, indicating a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited. State and local governments use this code to purchase consumable and reusable products for dental clinical and educational settings, though current procurement activity under the code is sparse and difficult to characterize with precision based on available records.

Valencia College (Florida) is the sole issuing body with a recent recorded opportunity under this code. The iTero Lumina procurement was a sole source acquisition under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057, with a posted date of April 13, 2026, a due date of November 27, 2025, and a total acquisition cost of $143,196.00 for four units from Align Technology, Inc. No competitive RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB activity appears in the recent record, and no set-aside or preference designations were noted. The code shows limited recent activity overall and warrants monitoring rather than immediate pursuit unless your firm has specific capability in dental practice supply or dental education procurement workflows.
