UNSPSC 42152902 Bands for dental matrix is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity covers a much broader scope than the nominal category suggests — solicitations under this code are actually acquiring advanced dental scanning equipment, master agreements for general dental and medical supplies, and specialized laboratory instrumentation for wastewater treatment. The issuing bodies include higher-education institutions (Valencia College, Texas A&M University) and municipal governments (City of Arlington, Texas), reflecting activity across both educational and operational procurement streams within state and local systems.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. Valencia College (Florida) posted a sole-source procurement on October 19, 2026 for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc at $143,196.00 total acquisition cost, due November 27, 2025 (under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057). Texas A&M University's Division of Finance Procurement Services issued ITB TAMHSC-26-0648 on August 20, 2026 for a master order agreement pool of vendors to supply dental and medical equipment and supplies on demand, with bids due September 3, 2026 through the AggieBid portal. The City of Arlington, Texas posted an RFP on August 12, 2026 (Solicitation 270014) for a cyanide flow analyzer to support wastewater treatment monitoring and regulatory compliance, with proposals due September 10, 2026 — though this analyzer procurement appears unrelated to dental matrix bands and suggests a tagging misalignment in the source data. The code shows limited recent activity and the opportunities present do not align consistently with the nominal scope of dental matrix bands.
