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.

This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code EH7772H, is developed for dependable soft tissue and wound approximation in animal health procedures where strength and precise penetration are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE delivers smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent tensile support.
The USP 2-0 (Metric 3) diameter provides increased tensile strength suitable for deeper soft tissue layers and higher-tension closures in veterinary surgery. The extended 75 cm strand length offers enhanced reach and flexibility during longer or more complex wound approximation procedures.
This suture features a V-6 TAPERCUT needle. The TAPERCUT configuration combines a tapered body with a cutting tip, allowing controlled penetration of dense or fibrous tissue while maintaining reduced trauma through deeper layers. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring durable non-absorbable wound closure.
