UNSPSC 42282000: Instrument cleaning devices and accessories

In this classification, this class includes, products, components, accessories, and supplies, utilized in Instrument cleaning procedures.

UNSPSC 42282000 Instrument cleaning devices and accessories is a Class code encompassing laboratory sterilization and decontamination equipment and their maintenance services. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through service contracts for autoclaves, laboratory sterilizers, and biosafety cabinets, including original equipment manufacturer replacement parts, preventative and emergency maintenance, field service escalation, calibration and certification, and inspection services. Issuing bodies span state departments, county water and utility authorities, and municipal governments. The work solicited reflects both equipment purchases and comprehensive service plans that bundle maintenance, parts, compliance monitoring, and rapid-response support aligned with medical and laboratory facility standards including FDA 510K clearance, ISO 13485 certification, and federal complaint-handling procedures under 21 CFR Part 803.

Recent solicitation activity appears across Florida, Oregon, and California. The City of Orlando's Water Reclamation Enterprises Department posted sole-source notices in August 2026 and March 2024 for laboratory sterilizer service plans (Solicitation S260554 and S240246, both with Getinge USA Sales LLC identified as the incumbent), each with a seven-calendar-day challenge window for alternative suppliers. The State of Oregon Department of Administrative Services issued an RFP in June 2026 (S1070000017047) for annual autoclave and associated equipment inspection, calibration, and repair services at its North Valley Complex in Wilsonville, with a maximum not-to-exceed compensation of $5 million, proposals due August 17, 2026, and a 5% preference for goods and services performed entirely in Oregon; all technicians must hold current CRCST, CBSPD, or equivalent autoclave certification with at least one year of hands-on experience. The State of California posted a Request for Bid in April 2026 (RFBIS26200890) for STERILGARD Biosafety Cabinets with detailed technical specifications and CBE certification requirements, due May 11, 2026. A Sourcewell cooperative procurement (RFP 061626) issued in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment appears unrelated to the code's scope and reflects a tagging mismatch rather than relevant activity under the instrument cleaning and sterilization category.
