- Durable: Stable in alkaline environments like bile and pancreatic secretions.
Recommended for: Cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, orthopaedic, and pediatric surgeries.


Fast-Absorbing Sutures
Quick Healing for Superficial Wounds
- Rapid Absorption: Optimised for tissues requiring short-term wound support.
- Superior Handling: Braided PGA material ensures flexibility and easy knot security.
- Gentle Recovery: Minimal tissue reaction, excellent for delicate areas like skin and mucosa.
Recommended for: Skin closure, oral surgery, and minor soft tissue repairs.
Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) sutures
Soft, Strong, and Reliable for a Wide Range of Surgeries
- Strong Yet Smooth: Braided 100% synthetic PGA offers a balance of strength and suppleness.
- Needle Excellence: Made with 300-series stainless steel and advanced micro-silicon coating for minimal penetration force.
- Predictable Absorption: Stable performance for secure wound support.
Recommended for: General surgery, gastrointestinal, and gynecologic procedures.


Polyglactin 910 (PGLA) sutures
Absorbable PGLA suture with triclosan antibacterial coating
- Broad-spectrum antibacterial: Effective against Gram-positive bacteria(e.g., Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative bacteria(e.g., Escherichia coli).
- Reduces risk of surgical site infection: Multiple studies have proven that antibacterial sutures can effectively reduce the incidence of surgical site infections, and are supported by global clinical guidelines (WHO, CDC, ACS/SIS) as part of surgical site infection prevention strategies
Recommended for: General surgery, orthopaedics, plastic surgery, and ophthalmology.
