Serag-Wiessner
As the oldest German manufacturer of surgical suture material, SERAG-WIESSNER combines decades of experience with the latest medical know-how.
Production of sterile catgut began over a century ago. The company has also long been a successful manufacturer of sterile liquid dosage forms. High performance is not just a tradition at the Upper Franconian plant, but also a central focus for the future: The combination of precise craftsmanship and high-tech industrial manufacturing methods enables the company to meet the highest quality standards in the production of small batches, custom-made products and standard articles.

Absorbable suture material
Absorbable suture material is used for sutures that dissolve in tissue, where indicated. The so-called half-life has become an established criterion for absorbable suture materials. Depending on the indication, we supply short-term, medium-term and long-term absorbable suture materials in many different thread sizes.
Good to know about sutures

absorbable or non-absorbable suture?
For absorbable sutures, a time period in days is typically indicated – it could be 7 days, 14 days, or more. This indication refers to the suture's half-life – i.e., when half of its strength remains. The suture itself usually disappears only after 2 to 3 times this indicated period.

Mono- or Multifilament?
Monofilament: A smooth suture. Low friction and collects fewer bacteria, but is slightly more difficult to achieve knot stability.
Multifilament: Braided from multiple strands. More flexible and easier to achieve good knot stability, but can absorb fluid and bacteria.
