UNSPSC 42281713: Sterilization drain pans

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used as drain pans associated with the sterilization process in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42281713 Sterilization drain pans, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity directly aligned with its stated scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is Sourcewell RFP #061626, issued May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline, which solicits law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle—a category plainly broader and unrelated to sterilization drain pans specifically. State and local procurement records do not reflect substantive recent solicitation activity targeting sterilization drain pans as a discrete product line under this code.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, is the issuing body for the single identified opportunity, which spans multiple Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and participating entities nationwide. The RFP structure establishes a framework contract available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities throughout the United States and Canada. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the law enforcement equipment focus of the only recent posting suggests that this code either sees very limited state and local procurement activity, or that opportunities tagged to it do not reflect its intended use. Firms considering pursuit should clarify with end-user agencies whether sterilization drain pans are being sourced under separate codes or through less-visible procurement channels, as the available record offers no visibility into current market demand.
