Get Started

We are the Manufacturing Equipment Finance Experts.

From CNC machines to packaging lines and everything in between, we’ll help you secure the machinery you need, without slowing you down.

Advice from the Experts

Think long-term. Manufacturing equipment is an investment.
Always get a comparative quote. Your bank might not be offering the best or most flexible solution.
Used equipment can be a smart buy. Second-hand machines from reliable sources are often a solid investment and are still financeable.
Talk to a broker early. It’s easier (and faster) to structure finance right from the start, rather than fix a poor deal later.

A cabinet installer was relying heavily on subcontractors to handle CNC cutting – an expensive and unreliable solution as their workload grew.

Realising the long-term cost, they decided to bring the process in-house. We helped finance their first CNC machine, structured to align with their cashflow, and arranged supplier payment through a letter of credit. Within weeks, they were operating from their own warehouse, saving on outsourcing costs and gaining control over production timelines – setting their business up for sustainable growth.

FAQ’s

Machinery & Vehicle Loans – Your Questions Answered

Securing the right finance for your manufacturing equipment is simpler when you have clear answers from the start. Whether you’re purchasing new or used machinery, buying from a supplier or private seller, or exploring repayment options, our FAQs will help guide you through the process with confidence.

Can I finance equipment bought via private sale?

Yes! Second-hand machines from suppliers like Machines4U or Facebook Marketplace are financeable.

How long does the process take?

Larger or more complex deals (especially involving imported equipment) may take longer due to supplier payments and shipping timelines.

Do I need to supply full financials?

Full application finance is common with manufacturing machines, but low document finance is possible if everything aligns.

Why use Finlease instead of a bank?

We have access a wide range of lenders and loan options, this means we can find the right solution, structured to your needs, with competitive rates and less hassle.

Do I need property as security?

Not always. Expect a 20% deposit if you’re not property-backed – but we’ll structure payments to ease cashflow.

Why should I secure a letter of credit?

For imported machines, we can organise a letter of credit that converts smoothly into a chattel mortgage once your equipment arrives.
