Flexible Finance to Support Your Investment
Whether you’re upgrading a single machine or investing in a complete production solution, we can introduce flexible finance options tailored to your business.
Financing machinery can offer a number of practical advantages:
Preserve working capital by spreading costs over an agreed term
Fixed repayments for improved budgeting and cashflow planning
Access higher-spec machinery without a large upfront outlay
Match payments to earnings, paying for equipment as it generates revenue
VAT deferral options to ease short-term cashflow
Tax efficiencies, with many forms of plant and machinery qualifying for capital allowances
Unlike traditional bank lending, asset finance facilities cannot be withdrawn once live, giving you certainty and control over your investment.
Through our finance partners, a wide range of facilities can be arranged, including:
Hire Purchase (HP)
Finance Lease
Operating Lease
Refinance & Capital Release
Sale and Leaseback
Contract Hire
Invoice Finance & Business Loans
Commercial Property Finance (where applicable)
Finance terms are typically available for up to five years, with longer periods possible depending on the equipment and application.
Standard manufacturer warranties do not always cover accidental damage, operator error, power surges or collisions. Extended machinery damage and breakdown cover can often be included within finance agreements, providing protection for new and used machinery for up to seven years and helping avoid unexpected repair costs.
We work with a small number of trusted, independent finance partners to ensure customers have access to competitive, appropriate funding solutions.
