ETHIBOND Excel (polyester coated) suture material from Ethicon
ETHIBOND Excel from Ethicon is a non-absorbable suture material made of inert polyester. The surgical thread with braided structure is coated with polybutylate to ensure tissue-friendly application. ETHIBOND is characterized by a constant tensile strength over the entire application period. It is therefore used for permanent tissue adaptation and ligation, as well as for skin closure. The green colouring makes it easier to find and remove the sutures. The ready-to-use needle-thread combinations are available in various needle sizes.

Optimized packaging
The Ethicon suture material is placed on a wrap-around tray to ensure easy removal of the needle-suture combination. The shape of the RELAY tray packaging helps to reduce suture memory. The suture material quickly returns to its original shape after removal and does not show any kinks. The One-Step RELAY Zipper design also allows direct access to the needle without a pull tab, saving time in the operating room.
All suture packaging, from the carton to the RELAY tray, is printed with clear labelling and an optical colour code. The standardized marking of each suture material helps to minimize errors and enables simple ordering and efficient stock-keeping. The packaging materials such as plastic wrapping carriers, films and cardboard outer packaging are recyclable. Great importance is attached to environmental compatibility both in the product design and in the manufacture of Ethicon articles.
