Collection details
SutureVet's monofilament veterinary sutures are manufactured from a single continuous strand of material, offering smooth tissue passage, minimal bacterial wicking, and low tissue reactivity compared to braided alternatives. These properties make monofilament sutures the preferred choice for many veterinary surgical applications where infection risk, tissue drag, and post-operative reactivity must be carefully managed.
Our monofilament range includes both absorbable options — such as poliglecaprone (Monocryl equivalent) and polydioxanone (PDS equivalent) — for internal tissue layers requiring temporary support, and non-absorbable monofilament materials such as nylon and polypropylene for skin closure, orthopaedic applications, and cardiovascular surgery. The smooth surface of monofilament sutures reduces the risk of bacterial colonisation and biofilm formation, making them particularly valuable in contaminated or infection-prone surgical sites.
Available across a comprehensive range of gauges from heavy 0 and 1 for large animal and orthopaedic work down to ultra-fine 5-0 and 6-0 for ophthalmic and exotic species surgery. All products are supplied sterile and individually packaged from ISO-certified manufacturers trusted by veterinary surgeons across the UK.

Ethicon STRATAFIX Spiral MONOCRYL Plus is a synthetic absorbable monofilament barbed surgical suture manufactured from poliglecaprone 25 and coated with triclosan antibacterial technology. It is engineered with a spiral knotless design to provide continuous tissue approximation without the need for knot tying.
The spiral barbed configuration distributes tension evenly along the wound line, supporting consistent tissue approximation while helping to reduce operative time. The monofilament structure ensures smooth passage through tissue with minimal drag.
This USP 3-0 suture is supplied in a 45cm length, undyed, and fitted with one 36mm 1/2 circle taperpoint needle. The larger 1/2 circle taperpoint needle is designed for controlled, atraumatic penetration in deeper soft tissue closure procedures.
STRATAFIX Spiral MONOCRYL Plus provides predictable absorption, reliable handling and antibacterial protection in professional surgical environments. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 12.

LUXAMID Nylon Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Sutures are intended for general soft tissue approximation and ligation where long-term tensile strength is required. Manufactured from high-quality polyamide monofilament, these sutures are non-absorbable and produce minimal tissue reaction.
The smooth monofilament construction provides low tissue drag, excellent handling characteristics, and reliable knot security, supporting precise placement and consistent clinical performance. The blue colouring enhances visibility against tissue, aiding accurate suture placement during procedures.
This variant is supplied in USP 3/0, 75 cm length, and fitted with an HR 20 (20 mm) reverse cutting needle. Reverse cutting needles feature the cutting edge on the outer curvature, reducing tissue cut-out risk while providing controlled penetration for skin and tougher tissue closure.
LUXAMID nylon sutures are widely used in hospitals, clinics, and surgical centres for skin closure, general surgery, and plastic surgery applications where non-absorbable wound support is required. Each box contains 12 sterile sutures, individually packaged to maintain sterility and suitability for professional surgical use.
