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-tier code that captures specialized medical consumables and infusion devices procured by state and local health agencies, emergency medical services, and supporting institutional buyers. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying intravenous stabilization devices, infusion systems, syringes, and related medical equipment accessories as components of broader medical supply bundles rather than as standalone items. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's July 2026 IFB for the Abilene State Supported Living Center included IV stabilization devices and syringes within a nine-line-item procurement of gastrostomy tubes, catheters, feeding tubes, and enteral sets; similarly, the City of Tampa's March 2026 IFB for medical and first aid supplies serving the Tampa Fire Department Rescue Division encompassed 169 line items of respiratory equipment, cardiac monitoring electrodes, airway devices, and bandaging materials alongside medical consumables. Issuing bodies span state health agencies, county emergency medical services (Marion County, Florida), municipal fire and rescue departments, and community colleges with emergency response programs. The code shows activity primarily across health and human services departments rather than procurement by general-purpose purchasing offices.

Geographic concentration appears strongest in Texas and Florida. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's Abilene facility procurement (due July 30, 2026) and the City of Huntsville's May 2026 MRO supplies ITB anchored Texas activity; Marion County, Florida's May 2026 procurement of Vidacare EZ-IO intraosseous infusion systems (due May 11, 2026) and Valencia College's February 2026 irrigation system mainline upgrades sourced from Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHS IFB HHS0017603 requesting IV stabilization devices, syringes, and feeding tubes from Cardinal Health, C.R. Bard, Becton Dickinson, and other named manufacturers on a blanket purchase agreement running September 2026 through August 2027, and Marion County's competitive procurement seeking Vidacare EZ-IO devices and needle components for emergency medical response. Both purchases emphasize brand specificity and authorized-vendor requirements, signaling that syringe adaptors and infusion devices under this code move predominantly through direct-supply relationships with established medical device manufacturers rather than open-market commodity channels.
