Collection details
SutureVet's avian veterinary sutures are selected for the exceptional precision and delicacy required in bird surgery. Avian patients present unique surgical challenges — thin, fragile skin, air sac anatomy, rapid metabolism, and high sensitivity to anaesthesia all demand suture materials that minimise tissue trauma, absorb predictably, and support rapid healing with minimal post-operative reactivity.
Our avian suture range focuses on ultra-fine gauge absorbable monofilament options such as poliglecaprone and polydioxanone, which offer smooth tissue passage, low reactivity, and predictable absorption suited to the faster metabolic rates of avian species. Fine braided absorbable options are also available for procedures where knot security is prioritised. Needle profiles are selected for atraumatic placement in the delicate skin and soft tissue structures of birds ranging from small passerines and budgerigars to large parrots, raptors, and waterfowl.
All products are supplied sterile and individually packaged from ISO-certified manufacturers, trusted by avian veterinary specialists, zoological practices, and wildlife rehabilitators across the UK.

This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EP8747H, is engineered for extreme load-bearing, permanent soft tissue approximation where maximum tensile strength, durability, and predictable handling are essential. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture provides outstanding long-term strength retention, minimal tissue reactivity, and low tissue drag.
The USP 7-0 diameter offers exceptional tensile strength suitable for closure of fascia, muscle, and other heavily stressed soft tissues. The 60 cm suture length provides extended reach and flexibility during complex surgical procedures requiring secure wound support.
EP8747H is supplied with two BV-1 taperpoint needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The taperpoint geometry enables controlled tissue penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and reliable penetration performance throughout use.
Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional clinical and hospital environments requiring maximum strength and permanent wound closure.
