UNSPSC 46182006: Protective films

UNSPSC 46182006 Protective films is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure respiratory protective equipment and related consumables—power systems, full face masks, filters, replacement parts, and accessories—under this code to equip fire and rescue personnel, emergency responders, and medical facilities with airborne protection. Recent solicitations show a pattern of purchasing Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) units and components, powered respirator systems with NIOSH approval, replacement filters and harnesses, and ventilator maintenance and repair services. The City of Austin has posted multiple quotations for CleanSpace CST Ultra Power Systems with integrated masks and filters for arson investigators; the City of Tampa and Gwinnett County have solicited Scott SCBA air pack replacements and related components; Hillsborough County has sought maintenance and repair services for Vyaire Medical LTV 1200 ventilators; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued a larger master contract RFP for durable medical equipment including respiratory supplies and CPAP devices across eleven service regions. Issuing bodies include city fire and rescue departments, county government procurement offices, state health agencies, and regional rehabilitation service programs, with fire departments and rescue services appearing as the dominant user agencies.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with additional action in the Southeast. The City of Austin Purchasing Office reissued its respirator quotation (IFQ 8300 JRH1026 due May 29, 2026, and a follow-on IFQ 8300 JRH1028 due June 12, 2026) after initial outreach to certified HUBs and M/WBE vendors did not generate sufficient responses, requesting pricing on approximately 12 power units, 300 filters, and associated accessories on an FOB Destination basis with thirty-day delivery. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued RFP HHS0017173 (due June 2, 2026) for master contracts in durable medical equipment including respiratory supplies across Texas with contract value capped at $5 million over five years and a 21.1 percent HUB utilization goal. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB 26-00275 (due June 12, 2026) for three-year preventative maintenance and repair on 40 Vyaire ventilators with an estimated contract value of $140,225, requiring ISO 13485 certification and AAMI-certified technicians. Gwinnett County and the City of Atlanta have posted SCBA procurement and equipment maintenance solicitations, with Gwinnett County's bid (BL074-26, due April 15, 2026) specifying Scott Air Pak X3 Pro units as sole source.
