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.

LuxSutures LUXAMID Nylon Veterinary Non-Absorbable Surgical Sutures are monofilament synthetic sutures manufactured by LuxSutures from polyamide (nylon 6.0 or 6.6), designed to provide dependable long-term wound support in veterinary surgical procedures.
The smooth monofilament construction ensures low tissue drag, minimal capillarity, and reduced tissue reaction, while the blue colouring enhances visibility within animal tissue during placement and knot tying. As a non-absorbable material, LUXAMID nylon provides high tensile strength and secure knot performance, making it suitable for procedures requiring prolonged mechanical support.
Although classified as non-absorbable, LuxSutures LUXAMID nylon sutures are gradually encapsulated by connective tissue. The suture mass diminishes by approximately 10% per year due to slow hydrolytic rupture of chemical links, allowing long-term presence without rapid degradation.
This LuxSutures LUXAMID variant is supplied in USP 4/0 size, with a 100 cm length, and is presented in a cassette format for controlled dispensing during veterinary surgical procedures. The blue colour reflects the nylon monofilament construction.
LuxSutures LUXAMID veterinary sutures are commonly used for ligation, skin closure, soft tissue approximation, and general veterinary surgery, where durable, long-term wound support and minimal tissue reaction are required.
Supplied as 1 sterile cassette per pack, individually packaged to maintain sterility and ensure consistent professional veterinary performance.
