FilBloc Permanent sutures are intended for general soft tissue approximation, excluding closure of the epidermis, where use of a non-absorbable suture is appropriate.

The Assut FilBloc Permanent Suture range of devices comprises a variety of gauge sizes and lengths, supplied with or without stainless steel needles, which are also available in a variety of different sizes and shapes. The sutures may have a 'block' at one end, which allows surgeons to close wounds quickly and securely without tying knots or changing suturing techniques. The block is made from the same material as the suture, and is used to anchor the suture. Assut FilBloc Permanent Sutures contact the patient and remain attached to the patient at the point suturing and may remain in place for significant periods. The sutures with needles do not need to be used with any other devices, but the needleless sutures need to be used together with legally available separate needles.
