UNSPSC 42152221: Dental laboratory model protectors or cases

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that provides external enclosure s to protect dental models and impressions. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42152221 Dental laboratory model protectors or cases (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code was Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department pursuing a sole source procurement for 4 iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc.—advanced 3D intraoral imaging devices totaling $143,196.00, not protective cases or model storage products. The opportunity was posted April 13, 2026 as an RFP with a due date of November 27, 2025, conducted under Florida Administrative Code and Florida Statute 287.057. The procurement followed a seven business day public posting process to allow review of the sole source justification before final approval.

The mismatch between the code's stated commodity (protective cases for dental laboratory models) and the actual procurement (digital scanning technology) suggests either tagging error or scope drift in how the issuing body classified the work. No additional recent opportunities under this code are present in the source, and the single record provides no basis for characterizing an ongoing market, issuing-body mix, or geographic spread beyond a single Florida higher-education institution. The code appears to see little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.
