Absorbable Suture

WEGO-PGA:
WEGO-PGA sutures are synthetic, absorbable, sterile surgical sutures composed of Polyglycolic Acid (PGA).
WEGO-PGA Rapid:
WEGO-PGA Rapid sutures are synthetic, absorbable, sterile surgical sutures composed of Polyglycolic Acid (PGA). The
characteristic rapid loss of strength is achieved by use of a polymer material with a lower molecular weight than regular WEGO-
PGA suture.
WEGO-PGLA:
WEGO-PGLA sutures are synthetic, absorbable, braided, sterile surgical sutures composed of a copolymer made from 90%
glycolide and 10% L-lactide.
WEGO-PGLA Rapid:
WEGO-PGLA Rapid sutures are synthetic, absorbable, braided, sterile surgical sutures composed of a copolymer made from 90%
glycolide and 10% L-lactide. The characteristic rapid loss of strength is achieved by use of a polymer material with a lower
molecular weight than regular WEGO-PGLA (Polyglactin 910) suture.
WEGO-PDO:
WEGO-PDO suture is a synthetic, absorbable, monofilament, sterile suture composed of a poly (p-dioxanone).
WEGO-PGCL:
WEGO-PGCL sutures are synthetic, absorbable, monofilament, sterile suture composed of a Poly (glycolide-co-caprolactone).
WEGO CHROMIC CATGUT:
WEGO CHROMIC CATGUT is twisted suture, color is brown, which is available from 2#-6/0. And the tensile strength retention-
days is 21-28 days. It is applicable for general, soft tissue, approximation and/or ligation, ophthalmic procedures.
WEGO PLAIN CATGUT:
WEGO PLAIN CATGUT is twisted suture, color is yellow, which is available from 2#-6/0. And the tensile strength retention-days is
7-10 days. It is applicable for general, soft tissue, approximation and/or ligation, ophthalmic procedures.

Non-Absorbable Suture

WEGO NYLON B:
WEGO NYLON B is braided suture made of polyamide 6 and 6.6. It is applicable for skin and plastic surgery, micro-vascular
surgery, ophthalmology, orthopaedics.
Equivalent with Surgilon in the surgery operation.
WEGO POLYESTER:
WEGO POLYESTER is braided suture made of polyethylene and terephthalate and with long period tensile strength. It is suitable
for skin closure, cardiovascular surgery, vascular surgery, ophthalmology, orthopaedics, gastrointestinal surgery and neurosurgery.
Available with Green or White color under Uncoated, Silicone Coated, PTFE Coated and Wax Coated.
Equivalent with Ethbon, Drografil, Ti-Cron, Surgidac in the surgery operation.
WEGO SILK:
WEGO silk have two years tensile strength retention. And applicable for General surgery, skin closure, oral surgery, neurosurgery,
ligatures. Available with black, white and blue color with Silicone coated or Wax Coated
Equivalent with Mersilk, Silkam, Sofsilk in the surgery operation.
WEGO PTFE:
WEGO PTFE is monofilament suture made of 100% high-density polytetrafluoroethylene, and have long period tensile strength. It
is applicable for all types of soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including cardiovascular, dental and general surgeries.
WEGO PVDF:
WEGO PVDF is monofilament blue suture, and the material is Polyvinylidenfluoride medical grade. It is not subject to any
degradation or loss of tensile strength. It is applicable for cardiovascular, ophthalmic, orthopedics, plastic and microsurgeries.
