UNSPSC 51241870 Glycerin/petrolatum/zinc oxide is a Commodity code covering topical wound-care and skin-protection products purchased by state and local emergency responders and medical providers. State and local governments use this code to procure a range of first aid and medical supplies including antiseptic treatments, petroleum-based salves, and protective compounds — typically as line items within broader medical supply solicitations rather than as standalone procurements. Fire rescue departments, emergency medical services, and health facilities represent the primary issuing bodies for work under this code, often bundling topical products with bandages, pain relievers, and other consumables into single ITB or RFQ packages.

The City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department posted ITB 25-P-00157 in April 2026, seeking medical aid supplies including topical products as part of a 32-item procurement with an estimated total budget of $100,000 and a one-year award period plus two optional one-year renewals. The solicitation required electronic bid submission through the OpenGov eProcurement Portal, offered a 5% bid discount for City-certified Small Local Business Enterprises and Underutilized Woman and Minority Owned Business Enterprises (capped at $10,000 and $20,000 respectively), and specified a minimum nine-month expiration date from acceptance for all products. The geographic spread is limited; the source records activity only in Florida. No other recent state or local opportunities under this code are documented in the source.
