Collection details
SutureVet offers a comprehensive range of canine sutures covering the full breadth of dog surgery — from routine neutering and skin laceration repair to complex orthopaedic reconstruction, soft tissue oncology, and gastrointestinal procedures. Our canine suture selection is curated to meet the demands of both general practice and specialist referral surgery.
We stock absorbable sutures including polyglactin, poliglecaprone, and polydioxanone for internal tissue layers, alongside non-absorbable nylon, polypropylene, and polyester options for skin closure and orthopaedic applications. Gauges range from heavy 0 and 1 for large breed orthopaedic work down to fine 4-0 and 5-0 for delicate soft tissue procedures.
Needle configurations include taper point for visceral and muscle layers, reverse cutting for skin and tough connective tissue, and blunt options for friable tissue. All products are ISO-certified and trusted by veterinary surgeons and practices across the UK.
Benefit from competitive trade pricing, bulk discounts, and fast UK dispatch when you order canine surgical sutures from SutureVet.

Ethicon VICRYL is a synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910, designed to provide dependable wound support with predictable absorption characteristics during the healing process.
This USP 2-0 violet suture is supplied in a 75 cm length and is armed with a single-armed 60 mm straight reverse cutting needle, enabling sharp, controlled penetration for tissues requiring cutting efficiency and direct linear access.
VICRYL sutures are absorbed by hydrolysis, resulting in minimal tissue reaction and gradual loss of tensile strength as healing progresses. The braided construction ensures excellent handling and knot security. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 12 for professional surgical environments.

Ethicon VICRYL is a sterile, synthetic, absorbable surgical suture composed of a copolymer made of 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide (polyglactin 910). The suture is braided and coated to enhance handling characteristics, knot security and smooth tissue passage.
This USP 2-0 violet suture is supplied in a 70 cm (27 inch) length and is armed with a single-armed UCL conventional cutting needle measuring 26 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature, designed to deliver sharp, controlled penetration for precise skin and superficial tissue closure.
VICRYL sutures are absorbed by hydrolysis and have been shown to be nonantigenic, nonpyrogenic and to elicit only a slight tissue reaction during absorption. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional hospital and clinical environments.
