UNSPSC 51241812: Aluminum/bentone/isobutane/isopropyl/menthol/undecylenic acid

This classification denotes a combination drug defined by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in its (VA's) National Drug File (NDF), which falls under VA Drug Class DE900. This VA Drug Class (DE900) classifies this compound as belonging to the group DERMATOLOGICALS, TOPICAL OTHER.

UNSPSC 51241812 Aluminum/bentone/isobutane/isopropyl/menthol/undecylenic acid (Commodity) covers chemical inputs and compounds state and local governments procure for water treatment, facility operations, and emergency services. The recent solicitation activity does not align cleanly with the code's nominal scope — the City of Austin's IFB for liquid aluminum sulfate (alum) maps to the code's chemistry but represents only one of the two recent opportunities on file, and the City of Tampa's ITB for medical aid supplies (antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, pain relievers, bandages, and first aid kits) falls outside the code's stated chemical family entirely. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity; state and local procurement under this UNSPSC appears sparse or infrequently tagged.

The one concrete opportunity aligned to the code's chemistry is the City of Austin's procurement of 179,200 gallons annually of unpackaged liquid aluminum sulfate at 47%–49% concentration for wastewater treatment (IFB 2200 CSH1061, due August 25, 2026). Austin Water requires NSF approval, AWWA B403 compliance, three current Texas municipal references, and bidders to maintain 9,000-gallon minimum inventory at each distribution location with a primary facility within 500 miles of Austin. Unit pricing remains firm for 12 months; price adjustments thereafter may not exceed 25% and must reference the Producer Price Index for chemical product manufacturing. Local business and small business preference discounts apply (5% on bids up to $500,000, 3% on bids $500,000–$50 million, stackable). The Tampa ITB posting date (April 24, 2026) and response date (April 9, 2025) are internally inconsistent and do not reflect current procurement status; activity under this code in Texas and Florida cannot be reliably characterized beyond the Austin opportunity.
