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 DE350. This VA Drug Class (DE350) classifies this compound as belonging to the group EMOLLIENTS.

UNSPSC 51241914 Glycerin/mineral oil/urea is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, covers chemical treatment products used in municipal water and wastewater operations rather than the narrow range its name suggests. The City of Austin's IFB 2200 CSH1061, posted July 27, 2026, sought liquid aluminum sulfate (alum) at 47%-49% concentration for phosphorus removal in wastewater treatment, signaling that state and local governments procure specialty chemicals for infrastructure operations under this code. The issuing bodies are primarily municipal water and wastewater utilities. The code shows limited recent activity; the second opportunity in the source (Tampa Fire Rescue's medical aid supplies ITB) is plainly unrelated to the code's scope and represents a classification mismatch rather than legitimate activity under this Commodity.

The Austin opportunity provides the strongest current signal. The City of Austin required bids due August 25, 2026, for an estimated annual quantity of 179,200 gallons, with local business and small business preference discounts of 5% and 3% available on qualifying bids. Bidders had to demonstrate manufacturer or authorized dealer status, maintain a 9,000-gallon minimum inventory, identify primary and alternate distribution facilities within 500 miles of Austin, provide NSF approval and AWWA B403 compliance, and submit three current municipal wastewater treatment references from Texas facilities. Unit pricing was firm for 12 months with potential price adjustments not to exceed 25% annually based on the Producer Price Index for chemical product manufacturing. The solicitation shows activity concentrated in Texas; the source does not identify recent opportunities in other states or regions.
