UNSPSC 42311523 Paste bandages is a Commodity code covering adhesive bandages and wound dressing products for emergency response, medical facility, and general supply use across state and local jurisdictions. Recent state and local solicitations show that governments buy paste bandages as part of broader first aid and medical supply procurement portfolios, though the code also captures standalone bandage line items within mixed medical-supply RFPs. Issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Escambia County Florida, Williamson County Texas), and city fire and rescue departments (City of Tampa). The code also appears in cooperative purchasing consortia such as NASPO ValuePoint, which aggregate medical supplies for state agencies and participating public entities. State and local procurement officers have been active under this code since early 2026, with mixed issuing-body participation suggesting steady baseline demand rather than concentration among repeat buyers.
