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 PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EP8740H, is engineered for extreme load-bearing, permanent soft tissue approximation where maximum tensile strength and predictable handling are essential. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture offers outstanding long-term strength retention, minimal tissue reactivity, and low tissue drag.
The USP 12 diameter delivers exceptional tensile strength suitable for closure of fascia, muscle, and other heavily stressed soft tissues. The 75 cm suture length provides extended reach and flexibility during complex surgical procedures requiring secure wound support.
EP8740H 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 predictable 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.
