UNSPSC 42152238: Dental laboratory vacuum unit supplies

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that contains consumable supplies used by laboratory vacuums in a dental setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901831.

UNSPSC 42152238 Dental laboratory vacuum unit supplies (Commodity) covers specialized equipment and consumable products for dental laboratory operations, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal volume and narrow scope. The single recent solicitation tagged to this code—Valencia College's School of Allied Health procurement for iTero Lumina intraoral scanners—represents a mismatch with the code's nominal focus on vacuum equipment supplies; the scanners are advanced 3D digital imaging devices for clinical and educational use in dental hygiene training, not laboratory vacuum components or their consumables. State and local buyers under this code appear limited to educational institutions pursuing dental program equipment acquisitions, with no indication of broader adoption across county health departments, municipal clinics, or transit or special-purpose district health services.

The code shows activity in Florida, where Valencia College posted a sole source procurement (SS202620) for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., with a total cost of $143,196.00 and a due date of November 27, 2025. The procurement was conducted under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057, with no competitive bidding or set-aside designations noted. The absence of additional recent opportunities in the source suggests that UNSPSC 42152238 sees little state and local procurement activity overall; the single opportunity recorded here reflects a narrowly tailored institutional purchase rather than a sustained or competitive market segment.
