UNSPSC 42212305: Insulin vial holders or protectors

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as vial holder or protector for insulin in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 420232.

UNSPSC 42212305 Insulin vial holders or protectors is a Commodity code that captures specialized medical supply and equipment procurement by state and local health and human services agencies, though recent state and local contract opportunities show minimal activity directly under this code's stated scope. The source contains no posted solicitations explicitly requesting insulin vial holders or protectors. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code involve unrelated product categories — traveling sprinkler irrigation systems, law enforcement equipment, intraosseous infusion devices, irrigation mainline upgrades, MRO supplies, and emergency medical consumables — indicating either a classification mismatch at the issuing-body level or dormant procurement activity under the code's nominal scope.

The few health-related opportunities in the source involve broader medical supply categories rather than insulin-storage devices. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's July 2026 IFB for the Abilene State Supported Living Center covers gastrostomy tubes, IV devices, catheters, and feeding supplies under a blanket purchase agreement, while the City of Tampa's March 2026 ITB for the Fire Department Rescue Division solicited 169 line items of respiratory equipment, cardiac electrodes, and emergency medical consumables as a sheltered-market contract for certified Small Local Business Enterprises with an estimated value of $700,000. Neither procurement specifically targets insulin storage or protection devices. State and local procurement under this code appears inactive or misaligned with recent solicitation activity, making it difficult to characterize issuing-body patterns, geographic concentration, or buyer intent. Business development professionals should verify with health department purchasing offices directly before committing resources to this code.
