UNSPSC 42312202: Suturing kits or trays or packs or sets

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is a prepackaged collection (either custom or standard) of the equipment and supplies that enable suture use in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Suturing kits or trays or packs or sets under 21 CFR 876.5130 and under FDA product code EZL. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 392410.

UNSPSC 42312202 Suturing kits or trays or packs or sets is a Commodity code that encompasses sterilized surgical suturing assemblies and related wound-closure materials procured by state and local health systems, emergency medical services, correctional facilities, and other public health providers. The single recent opportunity in the database does not reflect the actual scope of this code — Sourcewell's Law Enforcement Equipment RFP #061626 (due June 16, 2026) is tagged to this code but solicits law enforcement supplies rather than medical suturing products, indicating a classification mismatch in the source record. This code shows minimal relevant recent activity in available state and local solicitation databases.

Without additional opportunities in the source to characterize the issuing-body mix, geographic spread, or representative recent procurements, the buying pattern for this code cannot be reliably described from the present data. Firms pursuing suturing kit and tray contracts should monitor state health department RFPs, regional emergency services cooperatives, and correctional facility procurement notices directly rather than relying on UNSPSC 42312202 as a primary filtering mechanism in state and local contracting systems, as the code appears inconsistently applied across jurisdictions.
