UNSPSC 42296708: Surgical bone cement kit accessories

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a kit of components and consumable supplies for bone cement during a surgical procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule surgical bone cement kit accessories under HS 300640.

UNSPSC 42296708 Surgical bone cement kit accessories, a Commodity code, has minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes bone cement and related accessory kits for orthopedic surgery, but the three recent opportunities posted under this code encompass orthopedic hardware extraction systems (San Mateo County), law enforcement equipment (a multi-state cooperative through Sourcewell), and spinal implants and surgical supplies (University of Texas Health Science Center). Only the San Mateo Medical Center solicitation relates to orthopedic surgical services, but it addresses hardware removal and extraction rather than bone cement. The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement scope suggests either miscategorization by issuing bodies or that the code sees minimal genuine demand in state and local markets.

San Mateo Medical Center issued the sole orthopedic-adjacent opportunity—RFP 666002526252 for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services, due July 1, 2026, requiring five years of experience, ISO 13485:2016 certification, Northern California technical support, and insurance including $1,000,000 general liability and $5,000,000 cyber liability. A 5 to 10 percent local-business preference was available under San Mateo County Ordinance Code Chapter 2.89. The other two solicitations (Sourcewell cooperative RFP for law enforcement equipment across five Washington counties and others; University of Texas RFP for spinal implants) are plainly unrelated to surgical bone cement. The code shows little relevant recent activity, with geographic concentration in Northern California on the single on-topic opportunity and no indication of consistent demand from state departments, school districts, transit authorities, or other typical state and local buyers.
