UNSPSC 42151661: Dental instrument cases or bags

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used to protect dental instrument. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 392690.

UNSPSC 42151661 Dental instrument cases or bags is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement shows minimal alignment with its nominal scope—the single recent opportunity posted under this code involves the purchase of four iTero Lumina intraoral scanning devices, which are diagnostic imaging instruments rather than storage cases or bags. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department issued a sole source notice (SS202620) in November 2025 for $143,196.00 to acquire these specialized 3D digital scanning devices from Align Technology, Inc. for clinical and educational use. The mismatch between the code's stated focus on instrument storage and the actual procurement of diagnostic equipment suggests either a cataloging error on the issuing body's side or that the code is not currently used for its intended purpose in state and local procurement activity.

The single recent opportunity under this code came from a Florida higher-education institution (Valencia College), with no additional state or local jurisdictions reflected in the available record. The sole source procurement structure and narrow institutional scope limit visibility into broader market activity or geographic concentration. No set-aside designations or competitive elements were noted in the documentation. The lack of multiple recent solicitations—particularly those aligned with dental instrument storage products—indicates that this code sees minimal active procurement activity in state and local markets right now, and buyers pursuing dental-related contracts should verify code assignments independently rather than rely on this taxonomy entry alone.
