According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Synthetic Non-Absorbable Sutures market size was valued at US$ 844 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1229 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 5.6% during review period.
Synthetic non absorbable sutures are disposable sterile suture consumables made from synthetic polymers that maintain mechanical strength for a long time after implantation and do not undergo degradation or absorption in the body. Common materials include polypropylene, nylon, polyester, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polyvinylidene fluoride. The product is usually combined with specific suture needles to form a needle and thread set, which is used for skin incision closure and suture removal, vascular and cardiac surgery anastomosis, tendon and ligament repair, and surgical scenarios that require long-term tissue support and stable ligation. Its core evaluation dimensions include tissue reaction, thread strength maintenance, sliding resistance, knot safety, visibility, and batch consistency. In 2025, global Synthetic Non-Absorbable Sutures production reached approximately 35.67 M Units, with an average global market price of around US$ 23 per Units.
Synthetic non absorbable sutures are also widely used in clinical practice. In the 1950s, with the development of polymer materials science, nylon became the earliest synthetic non absorbable suture, which significantly reduced tissue reactions and had good strength and elasticity.
In the 1960s and 1970s, polypropylene and polyester sutures were successively introduced, further enhancing the strength, durability, and biocompatibility of sutures. Polypropylene suture has stable properties, high strength, and low tissue reactivity, and is commonly used in cardiovascular, plastic, and ophthalmic surgeries. It should be noted that polypropylene sutures are prone to slipping when knotted, requiring skilled operating techniques. Moreover, they are often used in the form of single stranded threads, which can cause cutting effects on fragile tissues. Polyester suture is mainly used in the form of multiple strands, with high strength and good durability. It is commonly used in orthopedics, ophthalmology, and tissue suturing that requires long-term support.
In the 1980s, polytetrafluoroethylene sutures were introduced and became an important choice in vascular surgery due to their extremely low tissue reactivity and excellent biocompatibility.
Synthetic non absorbable sutures are mature and demand rigid basic consumables. The overall increment mainly follows the growth of global surgical volume and the increasing proportion of complex surgical procedures such as cardiovascular, orthopedic and sports medicine. The competitive structure shows obvious stratification: basic specifications are more controlled by fees and centralized procurement, the price center is under pressure, and enterprises rely more on scale manufacturing, channel coverage, and stable delivery to ensure market share; Mid to high end specifications place greater emphasis on material and structural processing capabilities, such as monofilament systems with lower tissue reactivity, weaving systems with higher strength and better hand feel and optimized coatings, as well as high reliability long-term performance for vascular and cardiac surgery. These subdivisions often have stronger clinical stickiness and premium space. Future opportunities will focus on the penetration of high-end materials, the improvement of needle and thread combinations and specification matrices, the strengthening of quality consistency and compliance systems, and the establishment of clinical education and surgical adaptation support around key departments, in order to enhance structural profitability quality under price pressure.
