UNSPSC 42272211: Hyperinflation products

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a airway management tool utilizing hyperventilation to expand airways that have collapsed in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Hyperinflation products under 21 CFR 868.5905 and under FDA product code NHK. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42272211 Hyperinflation products (Commodity) shows significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited under it by state and local governments. The recent opportunities posted under this code encompass medical supplies (AEDs and accessories, ventilator maintenance and repair, general medical supplies through cooperative purchasing), facility infrastructure (energy recovery ventilator repair, tension fabric tent installation), and law enforcement equipment — none of which align with hyperinflation-related products. The issuing bodies include state cooperative purchasing consortia (NASPO ValuePoint, Sourcewell), county governments (Hillsborough County, Cobb County), cities (Augusta), and school districts (Mt. San Antonio Community College District, Cobb County School District), indicating no single category of purchaser dominates activity under this code.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia (City of Augusta, Cobb County School District, Hillsborough County), Idaho and South Dakota (NASPO ValuePoint cooperative), and Washington and Minnesota (Sourcewell cooperative). Representative opportunities include the NASPO ValuePoint RFP for medical supplies across multiple states with proposals due November 9, 2026; Cobb County School District's recurring RFQs for AED equipment and accessories (Q27009 due July 6, 2026 and Q27027 due July 27, 2026, each estimated at approximately $50,000); Hillsborough County's ITB 26-00275 for Vyaire Medical LTV 1200 ventilator maintenance and repair services ($140,225 estimated over three years, bids due June 12, 2026); and Mt. San Antonio Community College District's RFQ #2026-070 for large tension fabric tent purchase, delivery, and installation (proposals due July 6, 2026). The code assignment appears to be a taxonomy error rather than a signal of meaningful hyperinflation-products procurement activity at the state and local level.
