UNSPSC 42311544 Liquid bandages is a Commodity code covering first aid and medical bandaging products procured by fire departments, emergency services, and animal care facilities across state and local jurisdictions. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing liquid bandages as part of broader medical and first aid supply bundles rather than as standalone items—the code typically appears alongside antiseptic sprays, gauze, medical tape, respiratory equipment, and other emergency-response consumables. Fire rescue departments and regional animal shelters are the primary soliciting bodies under this code, with one city purchasing office managing multiple tranches of medical supplies. The work involves supplying consumable bandaging materials to support routine emergency operations and ongoing care activities, often with firm pricing for initial contract periods and documented expiration-date requirements.

The City of Tampa's Fire Rescue and Fire Department Rescue Division account for the bulk of recent activity, issuing multiple ITBs for medical and first aid supplies in 2026 (Solicitation 26P00145, due March 13, 2026, with a $700,000 estimated contract value; and Solicitation 25P00157, due April 9, 2025, with a $100,000 department budget), both of which bundle liquid bandages with dozens of other consumables. Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter in Texas issued IFB 26IFB24 (due April 23, 2026) for veterinary pharmaceuticals and clinic supplies, which included bandaging materials among its specified product lines. Activity clusters in Florida and Texas, with Tampa representing the most active single jurisdiction in the recent record. Both fire departments and animal-care facilities impose minimum expiration-date requirements (nine months for medical supplies, one year for veterinary products) and prefer electronic ordering systems with rapid delivery windows (within five working days for fire departments, within two weeks for animal services). Small Local Business Enterprise and minority-owned business certifications feature prominently in Tampa's solicitations, with bid discounts available to qualified firms.
