Description

ETHILON™ PRIME is a high-quality, non-absorbable suture material designed for safe and precise wound closure across multiple specialties, including dermatology, ophthalmology and microsurgery. The monofilament polyamide structure ensures smooth tissue passage, reduces trauma, and helps minimise bacterial adhesion. Its synthetic composition provides low tissue reactivity and long-term tensile strength, supporting reliable wound closure even during extended healing phases. The One-step RELAY Zipper packaging system enables fast and safe access to individual sutures while supporting secure needle handling without direct contact. This helps reduce handling time and lowers the risk of needlestick injuries in daily clinical workflows. The recyclable tray design and clear colour coding improve organisation and help prevent selection errors. The precise connection between needle and thread ensures a smooth transition and controlled passage through tissue. The ETHILON™ PRIME needle design provides excellent penetration properties and stable guidance in the needle holder, supporting accuracy and control during suturing. ETHILON™ PRIME supports efficient, precise and reliable surgical workflo
