UNSPSC 51242307 Methyl anthranilate/titanium dioxide is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity maps primarily to medical aid and first aid supply procurement rather than the chemical compound its name suggests. State and local purchasing under this code reflects the broad bundling of medical consumables into single procurements by emergency services and public health departments. The City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department's ITB 25-P-00157 for medical aid supplies illustrates the actual scope: the city sought a comprehensive procurement covering 32 line items including antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, pain relievers, bandages, first aid kits, and emergency blankets, with annual quantities ranging from single units to 2,700 units depending on the item. Fire and rescue departments appear to be the primary issuing bodies under this code, procuring these supplies through standard invitation-to-bid (ITB) mechanisms with one-year initial award periods and optional renewals.

The City of Tampa's April 2026 solicitation (ITB 25-P-00157, due April 9, 2025) represents the most recent relevant activity identifiable under the code. The procurement carried a $100,000 departmental budget and included set-aside provisions for City-certified Small Local Business Enterprises (SLBEs) and Underutilized Woman and Minority Owned Business Enterprises (U-WMBEs), offering 5% bid discounts capped at $10,000 for SLBEs and $20,000 for U-WMBEs. All medications required a minimum nine-month expiration date from acceptance. Geographic activity data is limited to Florida based on available records. The code shows minimal recent state and local solicitation volume relative to its nominal scope.
