Sutures Novafil | Covidien

Covidien Novafil Sutures are high-performance, non-absorbable monofilament sutures made from synthetic polybutester. Known for their unique combination of strength and elasticity, Novafil sutures provide dependable wound support with excellent handling characteristics.

The monofilament construction ensures smooth passage through tissue with minimal drag, while the suture’s inherent flexibility allows for secure and reliable knot tying. Designed to maintain tensile strength over time, Novafil sutures are ideal for procedures requiring extended wound support and low tissue reactivity.

These sutures are widely used in general soft tissue approximation and ligation, and are especially valued in applications where durability and consistent performance are essential.

Key Features
