Surgicryl® Monofast

Surgicryl® Monofast is a high-quality, synthetic absorbable monofilament suture made from Polyglecaprone 25, a copolymer composed of 75% glycolide and 25% ε-caprolactone. Designed for use in both veterinary and human surgical applications, this suture provides excellent handling characteristics, minimal tissue reaction, and predictable absorption, making it ideal for internal soft tissue approximation and subcuticular closures.

As a monofilament suture, Surgicryl Monofast ensures smooth passage through tissue with reduced drag and bacterial adherence. The material retains approximately 60–75% of its tensile strength at 7 days, with complete hydrolytic absorption achieved between 90 to 120 days. This allows for temporary wound support during the critical healing phase without the need for suture removal.

Available in violet or undyed beige, Surgicryl Monofast offers high visibility during placement while remaining subtle enough for delicate procedures. Its absence of coating ensures a low-profile finish and consistent performance across all tissue types. The suture is supplied sterile and can be paired with a wide range of needle types, such as DS19 or DS30, for precise placement in a variety of clinical scenarios.

Surgicryl Monofast is particularly useful in general surgery, gynaecological procedures, paediatrics, and veterinary medicine, especially where rapid healing is expected and long-term tensile strength is not required. Its biocompatibility and predictable degradation profile make it a trusted choice for healthcare professionals seeking both safety and efficiency.

At Medical Xpress, we are proud to offer Surgicryl Monofast sutures with full traceability and competitive pricing. Whether you’re sourcing for a busy surgical suite or a veterinary practice, our stock is ready for next-day dispatch across the UK.
