Medical Sutures – Buy Professional Surgical Sutures Online (UK)
Holding it together – that’s what our sutures do.
Medical Sutures is a UK-based, business-to-business supplier of professional surgical sutures and wound closure products, supplying hospitals, clinics, universities and medical procurement teams nationwide.
We stock a wide range of branded medical sutures at wholesale and bulk-buy prices, offering multiple gauges, lengths, materials and absorbability options to suit a broad range of surgical procedures.

Absorbable vs Non-Absorbable Sutures
Choosing the correct suture depends on procedure type, tissue type, healing time and patient factors.
Absorbable Sutures
Absorbable sutures such as Vicryl, Vicryl Rapide and Monocryl are commonly used where the suture does not need to be removed. Vicryl Rapide is particularly suitable for superficial wounds and paediatric lacerations, offering faster absorption and simplified aftercare.
Non-Absorbable Sutures
For cardiovascular, neurological and ophthalmic procedures, non-absorbable sutures such as Ethibond, Prolene, Nylon and Silk provide long-term strength and stability.
