UNSPSC 42182213 Exhaled breath thermometers is a Commodity code representing a narrow product line within first-aid and medical-supply procurement. State and local governments buy these devices as part of broader medical consumables purchases, occupational health programs, and first-aid kits distributed to schools, transit authorities, and municipal departments. Recent solicitations show thermometers appearing as line items within larger medical supply contracts rather than as standalone procurements, reflecting their role as a component of comprehensive health and safety programs.

School districts and special-purpose districts dominate recent activity under this code. The School Board of Pinellas County, Florida posted ITB #25CR069 in September 2026 for first-aid supplies including thermometers, with an estimated annual usage of $130,000 and a bid deadline of November 20, 2025. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries, issued RFP20260825 in August 2026 for occupational medical surveillance services encompassing medical examinations and testing across 14 Washington State ferry locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026. A third opportunity—Sourcewell RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment—appears to be tagged incorrectly under this code and shows no thermometer-related scope. Recent activity clusters in Florida and Washington State, with Pinellas County School District representing the most concrete match for exhaled breath thermometer procurement in a first-aid supply context.
