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.

This PROLENE Polypropylene Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture, product code EP8812SLH, is engineered for permanent soft tissue approximation where high tensile strength, precision handling, and predictable performance are required. Manufactured from blue dyed polypropylene monofilament, the suture provides outstanding long-term strength retention, minimal tissue reactivity, and low tissue drag.
The USP 24 diameter offers extremely high tensile strength for demanding soft tissue and fascia closure. The 60 cm suture length provides controlled handling in procedures where shorter working length is preferred.
EP8812SLH is supplied with two CC175-8 tapercut micro point needles, each measuring 9.3 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The tapercut micro point geometry enables precise tissue penetration with reduced trauma, while EVERPOINT technology ensures consistent needle sharpness and reliable penetration throughout use.
Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this suture is intended for professional clinical and hospital environments requiring strong, permanent wound closure with enhanced precision.
