Catgut sutures are natural absorbable surgical threads consisting of purified collagen, usually obtained from bovine or sheep intestines. They are widely used in general surgery, gynecology, dental, and veterinary applications.
At Britech, our absorbable catgut comes with accurate absorption profiles, smooth handling, and reliable tensile strength. Our sutures naturally dissolve in the body, decreasing post-op visits and increasing patient comfort.
Britech is a reliable and cost-effective catgut sutures supplier serving hospitals, clinics, and medical brands all over the world that require certified solutions.
This chromic stitch is treated with chromium salts in order to delay absorption and extend strength retention. It has 10–14 days of tensile strength, absorbs completely within 90 days, and has a shelf life of up to 5 years. Ideal for internal soft tissue closures needing a longer healing time.
