Product Overview
surgical suture catgut is an absorbable, natural suture option widely used by hospitals and surgical centers for soft tissue approximation and ligation. Oddway International supports institutional procurement with export-ready supply planning for routine tenders and urgent requirements. Additionally, we coordinate batch-level documentation and shipment execution to help importers maintain continuity across multi-facility networks.
For international buyers, chromic catgut suture is often selected where predictable absorption, handling familiarity, and broad clinical utility are required. However, absorption can vary by tissue environment; therefore, buyers typically specify chromic-treated variants for extended tensile strength retention and improved handling in moist fields.
