UNSPSC 42182213 Exhaled breath thermometers (Commodity) encompasses clinical and occupational health monitoring devices that state and local governments procure as components of broader first aid and medical supply inventories, law enforcement equipment packages, and workplace health programs. Recent solicitations show thermometers being acquired alongside bandages, gauze, exam gloves, and sharps containers in health and safety contexts rather than as standalone specialty instruments. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts, county governments, and multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing vehicles. The School Board of Pinellas County, Florida and Sourcewell (a State of Minnesota local government cooperative) represent the mix of direct procurement and cooperative contracting structures through which these supplies reach end-users across K-12 districts, law enforcement agencies, and other public entities.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Florida. The School Board of Pinellas County, Florida posted an ITB (#25-CR-069) in April 2026 for first aid supplies including thermometers, with an estimated annual usage of approximately $130,000 and a contract period from February 11, 2026 to February 10, 2027; delivery is F.O.B. destination to the Walter Pownall Service Center Warehouse in Largo, Florida, with the bid due November 20, 2025. Sourcewell, acting on behalf of multiple Washington state counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and participating entities nationwide, issued RFP #061626 in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment with a response deadline of June 16, 2026; that solicitation establishes a cooperative contracting framework available to governmental agencies, school districts, tribal governments, and nonprofits across the United States and Canada. Both opportunities require submission through online procurement portals and include firm pricing and delivery-term requirements.
