SURCRYL™ Rapid Premium Absorbable Sutures – Trusted Polyglycolic for Safe & Reliable Healing
Absorbable Polyglycolic Acid Synthetic Braided Surgical Sutures
SURCRYL Rapid absorbable sutures is a beige, braided multi-filament suture made of fast-absorbing polyglycolic acid, coated with polycaprolactone and calcium stearate. It offers high tensile strength, excellent handling, and knot security, ideal for short-term soft tissue support in plastic, obstetric, and pediatric surgeries.
| Type | First and foremost, SURCRYL RAPID is a braided and coated multifilament absorbable suture, specifically engineered for superior handling, secure knotting, and smooth tissue passage. Moreover, as a premium absorbable surgical suture, it offers dependable performance in both general and specialized surgeries. |
| Composition | From a material standpoint, SURCRYL RAPID is manufactured from Polyglycolic acid. Accordingly, it delivers predictable hydrolytic absorption with optimal tensile strength. As a result, this advanced formulation makes SURCRYL RAPID one of the most reliable Polyglycolic acid absorbable sutures available today. |
| Color | For enhanced intraoperative visibility, SURCRYL RAPID is available in Beige color, which therefore improves precision during surgical procedures. |
| Coating | In addition, each suture is coated with a precise layer of Polycaprolactone and Calcium Stearate (1%), ensuring: Reduced tissue drag, and thus smoother passage Enhanced knot security, for greater surgical confidence Excellent handling during surgery, even in delicate procedures Consequently, this coating significantly improves performance compared to uncoated absorbable sutures. |
| Tissue Reaction | Importantly, SURCRYL RAPID causes minimal tissue reaction, thereby promoting safe, gentle, and comfortable healing. |
Absorption Profile of SURCRYL™ RAPID Absorbable Sutures
With regard to absorption, SURCRYL RAPID absorbable sutures are absorbed by hydrolytic action, with:
- Total absorption in approximately 42 days.
- Around 50% tensile strength retention after 1 week
- Therefore, this predictable absorption profile makes SURCRYL RAPID ideal for soft tissue approximation that requires temporary yet reliable wound support.
Indications for Use – Where SURCRYL® RAPID Absorbable Sutures Are Used
Based on its proven properties, SURCRYL RAPID is recommended for general soft tissue closure and ligation, including:
- Plastic surgery
- Obstetrics (Episiotomy repair)
- Gynaecology
- Urology (Circumcision)
- Ophthalmic surgery (Conjunctiva)
- Pediatric surgery
As such, SURCRYL RAPID offers versatile clinical applications across multiple specialties.

Contradictions
However, SURCRYL RAPID Polyglycolic Acid absorbable sutures should not be used in:
Due to rapid loss of tensile strength, this suture should not be used where extended approximation of tissue under stress is required or where wound support beyond 7 days is required.
