Collection details
SutureVet offers a specialist range of exotic animal sutures designed for the unique anatomical and physiological demands of non-traditional species. From reptiles and birds to small mammals and zoo animals, our suture materials are selected to deliver reliable wound closure with minimal tissue reactivity.
Exotic animal surgery requires precision — fine gauges, atraumatic needle profiles, and materials that absorb predictably or remain stable in species with differing metabolic rates. Our range includes absorbable monofilament sutures ideal for internal closures in reptiles, as well as fine braided options suited to avian and small mammal soft tissue work.
All products are sourced from ISO-certified manufacturers and are used by exotic animal vets, wildlife rehabilitators, and zoological practices across the UK. Whether you are closing a chelonian shell repair, a ferret spay, or an avian crop incision, SutureVet has the right suture for the job.

This ETHILON™ Black Monofilament Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code W1756, is designed for ultra-fine tissue approximation where exceptional precision and minimal tissue trauma are essential. Manufactured from non-absorbable nylon monofilament, ETHILON provides extremely smooth tissue passage, very low tissue reactivity and reliable long-term tensile strength.
The USP 10-0 size is intended for ophthalmic and microvascular procedures requiring highly delicate wound closure. The 12 inch (30 cm) strand length allows precise control within confined microsurgical fields.
W1756 is supplied double-armed (D/A) with two TG160-6 taper point needles, each measuring approximately 6 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The taper point configuration enables atraumatic penetration of delicate tissue and supports balanced, symmetrical microsurgical approximation.
Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12 sutures, this product is intended for specialist hospital and microsurgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable micro-closure performance.
