UNSPSC 51242301: Oxybenzone/padimate o

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 DE300. This VA Drug Class (DE300) classifies this compound as belonging to the group SUN PROTECTANTS/SCREENS, TOPICAL.

UNSPSC 51242301 Oxybenzone/padimate o is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect sunscreen actives or related personal-care chemical ingredients. Instead, the tagged solicitations show water-treatment chemicals and medical supplies with no connection to the code's nominal scope. The City of Austin's IFB 2200 CSH1061 requests liquid aluminum sulfate (alum) for phosphorus removal at wastewater treatment facilities, and the City of Tampa's ITB 25-P-00157 solicits medical aid supplies including antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, bandages, and first aid kits for the Fire Rescue Department. Neither opportunity aligns with oxybenzone or padimate o actives. This code shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity.

The mismatch between the code's nominal product category and the tagged opportunities suggests either a data-classification error in the source system or that state and local procurement offices are not actively buying sunscreen actives or oxybenzone-based products under this Commodity code at present. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for sunscreen ingredients or personal-care chemical additives before pursuing opportunities in this product family.
