Suture Supply Co Knowledge Hub
Veterinary absorbable sutures are designed for internal tissue approximation, soft tissue closure and surgical wound repair in companion animals, equine procedures and veterinary surgery. Absorbable sutures provide temporary wound support during healing before gradually breaking down within tissue, reducing the need for long-term suture retention.
