Description
The suture material PROLENE™ is well suited for safe and atraumatic soft tissue management across a wide range of surgical disciplines. The synthetic, non-absorbable monofilament made of polypropylene provides consistently high tensile strength and remains stable even in infected tissue. Its smooth surface structure enables controlled tissue passage, helping to reduce trauma and support reliable wound healing. Due to its minimal tissue reactivity, PROLENE™ is particularly suitable for sensitive applications such as vascular, neurosurgical and ophthalmic procedures, where tissue irritation must be minimised. The permanent tensile strength makes it ideal for long-term stable closures, including cardiovascular anastomoses and subcuticular suturing. You benefit from excellent knot security and shape retention, supporting precise and efficient handling in both surgical and clinical workflows. PROLENE™ is available in multiple sizes and blue colouring, allowing flexible adaptation to different procedural requirements. Compatibility with various needle types and specialised configurations such as HEMO-SEAL™ combinations or PTFE pledget-supported sutures enables seamless integration into s
