Category: Suture / General Surgical
In 2003, Novatec Healthcare was supported by National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA) for the development of the first Thai Brand surgical sutures, Connek. In order to response to the continuously growth in Thai medical device market, we founded our new manufacturing site “Novamedic Co., Ltd.” Novamedic continuously concentrated in research and development for the best solution, in terms of quality and market demand, for surgical sutures market in Thailand. Our product ranges are including absorbable/ non-absorbable, Natural/ Synthetic, and Monofilament/ Multifilament surgical sutures. Our Sutures are now widely used in more than 500 hospitals across Thailand and have been sold over 20 million units.
