Knotless Barbed Suture

Polydioxanone (PDO) Knotless Barbed Sutures with Black Needle
Suturing without knotting
- Efficiency: The triangular flap design enables smooth tissue closure, reducing tissue damage and shortening suturing time
- Stability: Evenly spaced barbs anchor securely in the tissue, providing consistent tension and secure wound closure.
- Enhanced visibility: The blackened needle minimises glare and reflection under surgical lighting, reducing eye fatigue. Its high contrast against blood improves visibility, which is particularly beneficial in endoscopic and minimally invasive procedures.


Sanaloc™ PLUS Antibacterial Compressed Knotless Barbed Sutures
Faster closure with antibacterial coating
- Efficiency: Unidirectional barbs and a fixation tab enable a secured tissue closure without the need for surgical knots, allowing for faster and smoother wound closure in the OR.
- Reliable: Barbs are evenly spaced to distribute tension evenly, ensuring a stable wound closure throughout the healing process.
- Reduces risk of surgical site infection: Multiple studies have demonstrated 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.
