In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a human tissue implant used in a surgical implantation procedure in a medical setting Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 902129.

UNSPSC 42295502 Human tissue implants (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name suggests procurement of biological implant materials for surgical use, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect tissue implant procurement. Instead, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services—baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit medical examinations for ferry system workers across 14 Washington locations, due October 9, 2026—and Sourcewell's RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment spanning multiple counties and public entities (due June 16, 2026) represent a significant tagging mismatch. Neither opportunity involves human tissue implants or related surgical supplies.

The code shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. No issuing bodies are currently soliciting human tissue implants under UNSPSC 42295502, and no geographic concentration or vendor activity surfaces from available notices. Business development professionals evaluating this code should note the disconnect between its taxonomy definition and actual procurement signals. If tissue implant procurement does occur at state or local level, it may be tagged differently or routed through healthcare system procurement channels not captured in these recent postings.
