Collection details
SutureVet's non-absorbable veterinary sutures are designed to remain stable in tissue indefinitely, providing permanent or long-term wound support where the body's natural healing process alone cannot maintain structural integrity. Non-absorbable sutures are an essential component of the veterinary surgical toolkit, used across a wide range of applications where lasting mechanical support is required.
Our non-absorbable range includes monofilament materials such as nylon and polypropylene for skin closure, cardiovascular surgery, and orthopaedic applications, as well as braided non-absorbable options such as polyester and silk for procedures demanding superior knot security and handling. Non-absorbable sutures are the material of choice for skin closure requiring planned removal, cruciate ligament repair, tendon reconstruction, vascular anastomosis, and hernia repair across all veterinary species.
Available across a comprehensive gauge range from heavy sizes for large animal and orthopaedic work to fine gauges for ophthalmic and exotic species surgery. All products are supplied sterile and individually packaged from ISO-certified manufacturers trusted by veterinary surgeons and referral centres across the UK.
