UNSPSC 42191810: Patient care mattresses

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a mattress in a patient bed in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 611780.

UNSPSC 42191810 Patient care mattresses (Commodity) covers specialty therapeutic beds and medical-grade mattresses that state and local healthcare systems, educational institutions, and rehabilitation programs procure for acute-care settings, long-term care facilities, and residential housing. The recent opportunities show state and local buyers using this code to solicit both rental services for hospitalized patients requiring pressure-injury prevention surfaces and direct purchase of fire-retardant foam mattresses for university housing and medical facilities. Issuing bodies span public hospital systems, state university systems, and healthcare agencies; San Mateo Medical Center, the South Dakota Board of Regents, and similar regional public health and educational institutions dominate recent activity. The scope includes dual-firmness foam construction with convoluted toppers, fire-retardant compliance to CFR 1632 and CPSC 16 CFR 1633 standards, multi-location delivery with specified scheduling windows, and contractual terms ranging from two to five years with renewal options.

Recent opportunities cluster in the West and Upper Midwest. San Mateo Medical Center in California posted a specialty therapeutic bed rental RFP due July 27, 2026, specifying delivery and maintenance within the San Francisco Bay Area for acute-care hospitalized patients, weighted toward project approach (30 points) and firm qualifications (25 points) with 5–10 percent local vendor preference available. The South Dakota Board of Regents issued an IFB (solicitation 26IFB19840) due June 30, 2026, consolidating purchases across South Dakota State University in Brookings and Dakota State University in Madison, totaling 114 dual-firmness mattresses with July delivery deadlines and mandatory CFR and California Technical Bulletin 129 flammability compliance. Washington State Ferries posted an unrelated occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825) due October 9, 2026, and Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a DME and services RFP (HHS0017173) due June 2, 2026, encompassing a broader equipment scope that does not align with patient care mattress procurement. Activity under this Commodity code remains limited to the two directly relevant healthcare and educational mattress solicitations.
