UNSPSC 51241302 Hamamelis or witch hazel is a Commodity code that covers medicinal witch hazel products as stocked in first aid and medical supply programs. In practice, state and local procurement under this code reflects demand from emergency response and medical service organizations for witch hazel and related antiseptic topical products used in field medical kits, first aid supplies, and emergency preparedness inventories. The code serves fire departments, EMS agencies, and related public health and safety departments that maintain medical aid supply stocks. Witch hazel products in state and local procurement typically are acquired as components of larger medical supply bundles rather than as standalone line items, bundled with bandages, antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, pain relievers, and other first aid materials.

The City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department posted ITB 25P00157 on April 24, 2026, requesting a comprehensive medical aid supplies procurement covering 32 items with estimated annual quantities ranging from 1 to 2,700 units per item; the bid opening was scheduled for April 9, 2025 (note: the due date predates the posted date in the source). The solicitation included set-aside provisions for City-certified Small Local Business Enterprises and Underutilized Woman and Minority Owned Business Enterprises, offering up to a 5% bid discount capped at $10,000 for SLBEs and $20,000 for U-WMBEs. The total department budget was $100,000, with an initial one-year award period and potential for two additional one-year renewals. Recent activity under this code is limited, with only this single recent opportunity visible in the source data, indicating minimal current demand for witch hazel as a discrete procurement line item in state and local government.
