UNSPSC 42192809: Sustainable medical waste containers

In this classification, this commodity indicates a recycled or reusable product that is used for the safe disposal of medical sharps and related hazardous materials.

UNSPSC 42192809 Sustainable medical waste containers (Commodity) does not appear in the recent state and local contract opportunities provided. The opportunities posted between January and July 2026 under this code tag involve laser equipment and technical support for operating rooms, surgical power instruments, ventilator maintenance and repair, law enforcement equipment, intraosseous infusion devices, career and technical education resources, ultrasound imaging systems, and spinal implants — none of which align with the procurement of medical waste containers or waste management services. This mismatch suggests either that the code has been applied incorrectly to these opportunities in the source data, or that sustainable medical waste container procurement does not currently generate visible activity in recent state and local solicitations.

Without representative opportunities clearly aligned to the stated commodity scope, no reliable characterization of issuing-body type, geographic concentration, or procurement volume under this code can be drawn from the source material. Firms evaluating this code should verify the UNSPSC classification directly with procurement offices or consult additional data sources that track waste management and sustainability-focused medical supply contracts in the state and local market.
