UNSPSC 42152465: Dental lubricants

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that facilitate the application of a dental appliance or prosthetic and tries to ensure long product lifespan and optimal performance. US FDA regulates Dental lubricants under 21 CFR 880.6375 and under FDA product code ONK. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 300640.

UNSPSC 42152465 Dental lubricants is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitation activity under this code shows a substantial mismatch with its nominal scope. Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department posted a sole source procurement (SS202620) on October 19, 2026, for 4 iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc., totaling $143,196.00—advanced 3D intraoral imaging devices used for digital scanning of teeth and gums in clinical and educational settings. This acquisition falls squarely within dental equipment and imaging technology, not dental lubricants as the code name suggests. The procurement was conducted under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057, with a seven business day public posting process for sole source justification review before final approval. No set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were noted.

The code shows minimal relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity scope. The single recent opportunity identified under this UNSPSC reflects institutional dental education equipment procurement rather than consumable lubricants, indicating either a mis-tagging issue in the state and local procurement database or very limited current market activity in actual dental lubricant solicitations. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify whether their lubricant or consumables offerings are being tagged correctly in the systems where Florida public bodies and other state and local jurisdictions post opportunities, as the current activity does not reflect the code's intended product category.
