UNSPSC 42295461: Tissue glues or systems or applicators

In this classification, this commodity indicates a system consisting of products, consumables and accessories that are used to execute a tissue gluing or application procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42295461 Tissue glues or systems or applicators is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity reflected in recent solicitations. The two opportunities posted under this code in the past six months—a Sourcewell cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP and a Marion County, Florida school board janitorial and sanitary paper supplies contract—do not represent tissue adhesives or applicator systems. The law enforcement solicitation encompasses broad equipment categories for police and sheriff agencies, while the janitorial contract addresses consumable paper products, cleaning supplies, and related warehouse goods. Neither matches the nominal scope of tissue glues or medical-grade adhesive applicators that the code name suggests.

The issuing bodies involved are a state-level cooperative purchasing vehicle (Sourcewell, administering on behalf of multiple Washington counties and nationwide participating entities) and a school district (Marion County Schools, Florida). The geographic footprint spans Washington state and Florida based on recent postings, with the Sourcewell opportunity reaching a multi-jurisdictional audience across the United States and Canada. Given the misalignment between the code's intended scope and the work actually tagged to it in recent state and local notices, this code appears to carry limited relevant procurement activity for firms specializing in tissue adhesives or applicator systems. Business development professionals should verify that opportunities posted under this code are correctly classified before investing pursuit effort.
