UNSPSC 42311606: Topical hemostatic agents

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a mixture used as an adjunct or alternative to standard suturing techniques to control bleeding or for wound closure in a medical setting Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 300339.

UNSPSC 42311606 Topical hemostatic agents (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The three recent opportunities in the posting record are a cooperative-purchasing master-agreement RFP for medical supplies generally (NASPO ValuePoint), an occupational medical surveillance contract for ferry-system employees (Washington State Department of Transportation), and a law-enforcement equipment RFP (Sourcewell on behalf of multiple counties and jurisdictions). None of these solicitations target topical hemostatic agents, wound dressings, or related bleeding-control products. The code appears to be either rarely used in state and local procurement or systematically misapplied by posting entities; no meaningful scope characterization or opportunity pattern can be established from the available record.

Without recent opportunities actually tagged to hemostatic agents or related wound-care products in state and local contracting, geographic concentration and repeat-buyer patterns cannot be reliably assessed. Firms considering this code should verify current UNSPSC assignment through state and local procurement offices or cooperative purchasing catalogs, and track whether recent activity reflects data-entry error or genuine procurement demand for the commodity.
