SMI: Surgical sutures of the highest quality
SMI AG was established in 1987 - the first Belgian company to manufacture surgical sutures -
since when it has grown rapidly. Today it is recognised as a world-wide supplier of surgical
sutures.
The company is situated in St. Vith in the east of Belgium, near the point where the borders of
Belgium, Germany and Luxembourg meet.


   HIGHEST QUALITY AND SAFETY
SMI has always complied with international quality standards such as EN ISO 9001 and EN ISO
13485 as well as Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) procedures.
All materials used and finished products are subjected to stringent quality control by a dedicated
team headed by an industrial pharmacist. Quality and safety of surgical sutures are thus
assured.


   WORLD-WIDE RECOGNITION
SMI exports to 60 different countries all over the world, which make up approximately 80% of
SMI’s turnover. This performance earned SMI the “Royal Export Award 2000“ from the Belgian
Foreign Trade Board.


   THE CATALOGUE
This catalogue contains information about the full range of SMI suture materials, together with
details of the many presentations held in stock. Should any customer require a non standard
presentation, this can be manufactured as a “special“ on request.

                                   50% of tensile strength remain after 21 days.
