Collection details
SutureVet provides a specialist range of equine sutures designed to meet the exacting standards of horse surgery and large animal veterinary practice. Whether you are performing colic surgery, wound closure, tendon repair, or reproductive procedures, our suture materials deliver the strength, flexibility, and tissue compatibility required in equine patients.
Horses present unique surgical challenges — large tissue volumes, high wound tension, and active post-operative movement all demand suture materials with superior knot security and tensile strength. Our equine range includes heavy-gauge absorbable sutures such as polyglactin and poliglecaprone for internal closures, alongside durable non-absorbable nylon and polypropylene sutures for skin and external applications.
Needle options include taper point for visceral and muscle layers, and reverse cutting for tough cutaneous tissue. All products are ISO-certified and trusted by equine vets, referral hospitals, and racing yards across the UK.
Benefit from competitive trade pricing, bulk purchasing options, and fast UK dispatch from SutureVet.

LUXSUTURES® Luxylene Polypropylene sutures are non-absorbable monofilament surgical sutures engineered for secure and long-term wound closure. Manufactured from isotactic polypropylene, these sutures deliver excellent tensile strength with minimal tissue reactivity, making them suitable for extremely delicate procedures requiring permanent support.
The smooth monofilament construction allows atraumatic passage through tissue, reducing drag and minimising bacterial adherence. The blue suture colour enhances visibility during placement and knot tying, supporting accurate handling in clinical and veterinary environments.
This variant is supplied double-armed with two DR 10 reverse cutting needles, designed for controlled penetration of fine skin and delicate tissue. The reverse cutting geometry supports clean incision edges while reducing the risk of tissue tearing, enabling precise wound edge approximation. Supplied sterile and single-use.
