UNSPSC 42261602: Medical body bags

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used as a medically related body bagsUS FDA regulates Medical body bags under 21 CFR 878.4040 and under FDA product code OKF. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 392690.

UNSPSC 42261602 Medical body bags is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with the nominal scope. The Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 (due October 9, 2026) solicits occupational medical surveillance services — baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit medical examinations for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations — a service contract requiring board-certified occupational physicians, not body bags. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017603 (due July 30, 2026) procures medical supplies and equipment including gastrostomy feeding tubes, IV stabilization devices, catheters, and feeding tubes for the Abilene State Supported Living Center, a patient care consumables category distinct from body bags. The Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP 061626 (due June 16, 2026) addresses law enforcement equipment across multiple counties and jurisdictions, also unrelated to the code's stated scope. The mismatch suggests either tagging errors in the source data or that this code sees minimal relevant state and local procurement activity.

The issuing bodies span state departments, state agencies, and cooperative purchasing vehicles — the Washington State Department of Transportation, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government unit serving participating entities in Washington, Texas, and beyond). Geographic activity touches Washington, Texas, and multi-state cooperative frameworks. No recent state and local opportunities in the source data actually solicit medical body bags or similar mortuary equipment under this code.
