Sterile Consumables and Reusable Instruments
The surgical supply line combines single-use sterile consumables with reusable stainless steel instruments. Blades, sutures, drapes and gowns ship sterile and are consumed per case, which makes them the primary standing order candidates for high-volume surgical schedules. Reusable instruments are stocked as non-sterile items that practices reprocess on site using the sterilization pouches, wrap and indicators also carried in this line. Box and case configurations are sized to practice case load so purchasing teams can match reorder quantity to procedure volume.
Surgical consumables are among the steadiest reorder lines in veterinary purchasing, consumed continuously across the spay, neuter and general surgery schedule. Because blades, sutures and drapes turn over quickly, case pricing and standing order automation carry real weight for materials management at high-volume clinics and multi-site hospital groups.

Frequently Asked Questions
What scalpel blade sizes are stocked for veterinary surgery?
The catalog stocks common surgical blade sizes including 10, 11, 12, 15, 20 and 22, in carbon steel and stainless, with matching handles. Aspen Surgical Bard-Parker lines are among the blade brands stocked for veterinary use. Blades ship sterile in box and case quantities so practices can match reorder volume to surgical case load.
What is the difference between absorbable and non-absorbable sutures?
Absorbable sutures break down in the body over time and are used for internal tissue layers and ligation where suture removal is not practical. Non-absorbable sutures retain strength and are used where lasting closure or later removal is planned, such as skin closure. The catalog stocks both types in a range of gauges and needle configurations for veterinary procedures.
Are sterile surgical drapes and gowns available?
Yes. The line stocks sterile fenestrated and plain surgical drapes, back table covers and surgeon gowns for building the aseptic field in companion and large animal surgery. These are single-use sterile consumables reordered per case. Sterilization pouches, wrap and indicators are also stocked for practices that reprocess reusable instruments on site.
Can veterinary practices order surgical supplies in bulk?
Yes. Veterinary surgical supplies are stocked in box, case and pallet quantities for animal hospitals, small animal clinics, equine and mixed animal practices, spay and neuter programs, shelters and licensed distributors. Standing order programs are available for the highest-volume consumables such as scalpel blades, sutures and drapes. Contact our procurement team for tiered case pricing and standing order setup.
What surgical supplies should be in a veterinary formulary?
A veterinary surgical formulary typically includes scalpel blades and handles in the common sizes, absorbable and non-absorbable sutures across several gauges, sterile fenestrated and plain drapes with surgeon gowns, a base set of hand instruments such as needle holders, forceps and scissors, and sterilization pouches, wrap and indicators for instrument reprocessing.
