UNSPSC 42212306: Syringe adaptors or holders

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

UNSPSC 42212306 Syringe adaptors or holders is a Commodity code covering specialized medical connectors and attachment devices used in clinical and emergency medical settings. State and local governments procure these items as components within broader medical supply contracts supporting healthcare facilities, emergency medical services, and public health programs. The code encompasses syringe-compatible connectors, luer-lock adapters, needle hubs, infusion line couplers, and similar interface hardware that enable safe fluid transfer and equipment compatibility in medical procedures.

Recent state and local solicitation activity under this code shows minimal direct procurement of syringe adaptors as standalone line items. The Georgia World Congress Center Authority (RFP, due October 7, 2026) and Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP, due October 9, 2026) are actively procuring in related medical and occupational health domains, but their scopes—irrigation system upgrades and occupational medical surveillance—do not align with syringe adaptor purchasing. Marion County, Florida (due May 11, 2026) posted a notice for Vidacare EZ-IO intraosseous infusion systems, which include needle and infusion components that may incorporate syringe-compatible adapters, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (IFB, due July 30, 2026) solicited medical supplies including syringes, IV stabilization devices, and enteral feeding sets for the Abilene State Supported Living Center—a more relevant opportunity for component-level syringe hardware. The code shows limited recent activity as a standalone procurement driver; syringe adaptors typically appear as nested line items within larger medical supply or healthcare facility equipment contracts rather than as dedicated solicitation subjects. Procurement activity appears concentrated in Texas and Florida healthcare and emergency services contexts, with occasional activity in Washington state occupational health programs, though the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and recent opportunities suggests this Commodity code may not capture state and local syringe adaptor purchasing directly or frequently.
