About UNSPSC 42261602
UNSPSC 42261602 Medical body bags is a Commodity code that captures specialized medical supplies and equipment procured by state and local health authorities, supported living centers, and public health agencies. The code's recent solicitations show activity centered on medical-facility consumables and equipment — though the recent opportunities block does not include a dedicated body bag solicitation, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017603 for the Abilene State Supported Living Center (posted July 15, 2026, due July 30, 2026) exemplifies the types of medical supply agreements state health agencies pursue under related commodity codes, with firm-fixed pricing, blanket purchase structures, and estimated annual quantities across multiple specialized items. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state health departments, regional supported-living facilities, and health service authorities. The scope reflects consumable medical equipment and supplies for institutional care settings rather than retail or consumer distribution.
The code shows limited recent activity specific to body bags in the sourced opportunities block; the three posted records cover medical supplies for a state health facility, law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle, and municipal heat relief supplies—none of which align directly with the body bag commodity. Geographic coverage across the recent opportunities spans Texas (HHSC), the Upper Midwest and Pacific Northwest (Sourcewell cooperative serving Washington, Minnesota, and multiple states), and Arizona (City of Phoenix). Activity under this code warrants close monitoring for state health department procurements and special-district health authority requests, but the sourced records do not establish baseline demand or repeat buyers for body bags specifically at this time.
