Peters Surgical Sutures
For over 50 years, Peters Surgical has manufactured and distributed suture portfolios designed to meet users’ needs during the various stages of major surgical procedures:
- Absorbable Sutures. A complete range of Absorbable Sutures, intended to be used in general surgery: 2 braids with rapid (Optime® R) or medium (Optime®) absorption time and 2 monofilaments with medium (Advantime®) or slow (Monotime®) absorption time.
- Non-Absorbable Sutures. A versatile portfolio of Non-Absorbable Sutures designed for tissue approximation and/or ligation, during cardiac and vascular surgery (Corolene®, Premio®, Cardioxyl®, Cardioflon® Evolution, Cardionyl®, Acier), ophthalmic surgery (Polypropylen, Nylon, Silk, Sinusorb® PGA) or general surgery (Filapeau®, Polytresse®, Silk) in particular.
- Self-Locking Barbed Sutures. Darvin Loc Self-Locking Barbed Sutures indicated for various surgical procedures where the overlock technique is required in open, laparoscopic and/or robotic surgery: general, bariatric, gynecological, urological, plastic and orthopedic surgery.
- Needles. A wide choice of needles, made of stainless steel with an alloy from the 300 series allowing adaptation to all types of tissues.
Peters Surgical Absorbable Sutures Sutures
The major advantage of absorbable sutures is the absence of foreign bodies in living tissue after a few months, without any additional intervention.
Technically, absorbable sutures must have sufficient strength to hold the wound until the tissue has healed sufficiently. Then the absorbable sutures will lose all of their strength and be eliminated by the body’s metabolism or their knot falls outside the body (if it is surface use).
Peters Surgical Non-Absorbable Sutures Sutures
Non-absorbable sutures are used in a wide variety of surgical procedures and are therefore implanted in different types of tissues at different locations in the body.
Composed of a variety of non-biodegradable materials (natural fibers or synthetic fibers), non-absorbable sutures are indicated for general tissue approximation and/or ligation and also in different surgery types depending on the suture range. They can also be used in cases where the patient has a history of allergic reactions to absorbable sutures or to the fixation of prostheses (for example, defibrillators, prosthetic valves, reinforcement implants, etc.).
Non-absorbable sutures are not digested by the body’s enzymes or hydrolyzed in body tissues. They are ultimately encapsulated or walled off by the body’s fibroblasts.
Historically recognized for its cardiovascular sutures, Peters Surgical now offers a wide range of non-absorbable sutures depending on the surgical use for valve procedures, wound closure and anastomosis, general surgery, ophthalmology and sternum closure.

Peters Surgical Barbed Sutures Sutures
Peters Surgical offers a range of Darvin Loc Barbed Sutures with a Self-locking System for use in various surgical procedures requiring a continuous suture technique. These sutures are designed to eliminate the need for knot tying or passing through loops to fix the thread at the beginning of the suturing process.
How are made the Barbed Sutures. The Darvin Loc Barbed Sutures range is available in different materials, including absorbable and non-absorbable options, with a wide range of designs such as unidirectional with a Final Lock System or a unidirectional loop suture, and double-armed two-way with or without a Center Marker.
Barbed Sutures Main advantage. Suturing with Darvin Loc is characterized by a significantly higher number of fixation points, which is designed to even tension control and to improve adaptation to the wound edges. This could be especially useful for laparoscopic operations, where knotting and suturing can be challenging and time-consuming.
Peters Surgical Needles Sutures
Key factors in the surgical needle basic design include the quality of its alloy, surface coating, and needle geometry. While the needle alloy defines needle bending strength and ductility, the silicon coating maintains the sharpness and consistency of needle penetration. The design of needle tips is also based on the type of tissue where they will be used.
Peters Surgical needles are made from 300 series austenitic stainless steel, providing better bending resistance and ductility compared to 400 series alloy needles available on the market. Our needles come in multiple configurations to meet the specific needs of your procedure.
Peters Surgical Clips
Peters Surgical offers a clip range tailored to different surgical approaches and procedures in the operating room.
- Cardiac and vascular surgery: CABG, aneurysm, carotid artery surgery, arteriovenous fistula
- Thoracic surgery: Lobectomy
- Digestive surgery: Cholecystectomy, Colectomy
- Bariatric: Sleeve gastrectomy
- Endocrine: Thyroidectomy
- Reconstructive surgery: Flaps
- Urological surgery: Prostatectomy, Nephrectomy, Cystectomy

Peters Surgical Titanium Clips Clips
Our clips are designed and manufactured in France, and are made 100% in titanium. They are available on 2 differents cartridge sizes (clips “SLS”- 6 clips and “Clips 9”- 9 clips): a solution that is adapted to the specific needs of each surgeon and procedure. Our packaging options (6, 9, 24 or 27 clips) meet the needs of surgeons while also reducing waste and costs per procedure.
Peters Surgical Clips Applicators Clips
Over 20 applicators and 7 clip sizes are included in the Peters Surgical range, making it one of the most extensive clip ranges available on the market.
Peters Surgical Clamps
Clamp control is essential for cardiac and vascular surgeons. This doesn’t only concern occlusion strength, but also the clamp capacity to avoid traumatism on the vessel or artery.
Peters Surgical clamp range meets these requirements by offering products that provide clamping quality (occlusion force, different jaw lengths) and atraumaticity thanks to several available protections.
Peters Surgical Flexible clamps Clamps
Cygnet® clamps capture the world of multiuse and aortic cross clamping. The rigid shaft is designed to enable tunneling and accurate clamp placement. Once properly positioned, the rigid shaft retracts leaving a flexible neck, which can be maneuvered to a location remote of the surgical procedure.
Intrack® Inserts are compatible with both Cygnet® flexible clamps and Intrack® clamps. They allow for optimal protection according to user requirements

Peters Surgical Surgical Glue
Our Ifabond® surgical adhesive solution is made for fixation and hemostasis.
Ifabond® is a class III implantable medical device offering an alternative to staples, sutures and other fixation devices in surgical procedures thanks to its adhesive and hemostatic actions.
This medical device can be applied alone or in combination with sutures if necessary, in open or laparoscopic surgery.
Peters Surgical Ifabond® Surgical Glue Glue
Ifabond® is a synthetic surgical glue made from n-hexyl cyanoacrylate monomers (98% pure) for mesh fixation, tissue fixation and hemostasis. Its polymerization occurs in contact with body fluids (whitening effect and fixation within 30s) with a very limited temperature increase (max. 2 °C). It can be used in many surgeries and helps to improve the quality of care delivered to the patient:
- Atraumatic glue, designed to prevent any transfixion during the mesh fixation
- Resorption: partial from 3 to 6 months, total from 6 to 12 months
- Flexible glue after its polymerization (N-Hexyl) absorbing potential stress
- Slow degradation without emission of toxic products

Peters Surgical Purefill® Embolizing Agent Glue
Purefill® Embolizing Agent has low viscosity, translucent, sterile, liquid embolization implant composed of n-hexyl cyanoacrylate monomers. Suitable for embolization of arteriovenous malformations.
Rapid polymerization when the liquid embolizing agent comes into contact with tissue or moist environments (blood/water).
Low adhesion to the distal part of the catheter during catheter removal.
