MERSILENE (polyester) suture material by Ethicon
The suture material MERSILENE from Ethicon is a non-absorbable polyfilament with needle. The braided polyester fiber ensures an excellent knot fit and high tensile strength. Due to the low tissue reaction and the low loss of tensile strength, MERSILENE is suitable for long-term adaptations and skin closures. The permanent fixation of soft tissue to bone tissue as well as cardiovascular, ophthalmological and neurological procedures are also common areas of application. The ready-to-use needle-thread combinations are available in various needle sizes.

Optimized packaging
The Ethicon suture material is placed on a wrapping carrier 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 enables direct access to the needle without a pull tab, thus saving time in the operating room.
All suture material packaging, from the carton to the RELAY tray, is printed with clear labeling and an optical color 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.
