UNSPSC 42203423: Embolization spheres

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a sphere involved in the artificial formation or development of an embolus in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Embolization spheres under 21 CFR 870.33 and under FDA product code KRD. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42203423 Embolization spheres is a Commodity code that describes medical devices used in interventional procedures, but the single recent state and local opportunity tagged to this code does not reflect that scope. Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 seeking Law Enforcement Equipment for participating counties and jurisdictions across Washington state and beyond — a procurement plainly unrelated to embolization spheres or medical device supply. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the opportunity record or a misclassification at the source. No recent opportunities directly aligned with the code's actual commodity scope appear in the available records.

The code shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity for embolization spheres themselves. Without additional opportunity records demonstrating purchasing patterns, issuing-body types, or geographic concentration in the medical device or healthcare procurement space, a business development assessment under this code cannot be grounded in current market signals. Firms pursuing state and local opportunities in medical device supply should verify code classification on relevant RFPs and RFQs directly rather than relying on this code's current tagging pattern.
