Scope of the Report

The global Medical Absorbable Polymer Surgical Sutures market size is predicted to grow from US$ 147 million in 2025 to US$ 200 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2026 to 2032.

Medical absorbable polymer surgical sutures are made from biodegradable polymers such as polyglycolic acid, polylactic acid, and polydioxanone. After implantation, they are gradually broken down and absorbed by the body, used for tissue suturing and wound closure.

Upstream suppliers mainly include those for polyglycolic acid, polylactic acid, polycaprolactone, dyes, coating materials, needle steel, and sterile packaging materials. Downstream applications primarily target hospitals, surgical centers, obstetrics and gynecology, general surgery, orthopedics, plastic surgery, and veterinary medicine.

The global market price for medical absorbable polymer surgical sutures is $2.6 per unit, with annual sales of approximately 57.96 million units and a global annual production capacity of approximately 60 million units. The industry profit margin is 30%.

Global key Medical Absorbable Polymer Surgical Sutures players cover Johnson & Johnson(Ethicon), Dolphin Sutures, Lotus Surgicals, Internacional Farmaceutica, Meril Life Sciences, etc.
