UNSPSC 42311514: Germicidal dressing

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product consisting of a certain type of dressing for a wound that is impregnated with substances destructive to germs or microbes.

UNSPSC 42311514 Germicidal dressing, a Commodity code, encompasses antiseptic and antimicrobial wound dressing products that state and local government procurement offices source as components of broader medical supply, first aid, and occupational health programs. State and local jurisdictions acquire germicidal dressings primarily through cooperative purchasing agreements, consolidated medical supply RFPs, and targeted sole-source procurements for specialized medical equipment systems. Issuing bodies include state agencies (notably Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Washington State Department of Transportation, Idaho state procurement via NASPO ValuePoint), county governments (Escambia County, Florida; Williamson County, Texas), city fire and rescue departments (Tampa Fire Rescue), and state-supported care facilities. The product typically appears in solicitations alongside broader wound care, first aid, and protective equipment line items, though specialized use cases—such as stabilizer dressings paired with intraosseous needle systems—drive sole-source and narrow-scope RFQs. Recent procurement volume is modest; germicidal dressings are often one line item among dozens in larger medical supply IFBs rather than standalone requisitions.

Recent activity spans Texas, Florida, Washington, and Idaho. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' IFB 304T27345A2 for Personal Protective Equipment and First Aid Components (response deadline October 6, 2026) and the Denton State Supported Living Center's miscellaneous medical supplies IFB HHS0017685 (closed August 19, 2026) represent typical state procurement vehicles; the City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department's ITB 25P00157 for medical aid supplies (closed April 9, 2025, with an estimated $100,000 departmental budget and SBE/WMBE set-aside provisions) exemplifies municipal sourcing. Escambia County's specialized sole-source procurement SSPS0072026 (closed September 29, 2026) for intraosseous needles and stabilizer dressings demonstrates vertical specialization when germicidal dressings integrate into equipment-specific systems. The NASPO ValuePoint RFP NVP1443 for Idaho Medical Supplies (response deadline November 9, 2026) shows cooperative purchasing frameworks used to aggregate state and local demand across multiple jurisdictions and establish tiered pricing.
