Construction

Construction, mining and heavy plant equipment

If you’re looking to buy a new Hitachi excavator or wheeled loader, or a Metso crusher or screener, for your business, then why not lease it instead of using your precious working capital? Whichever one of our finance options you choose, you’ll have the comfort of knowing that you’ve made an investment for your business in the most cash efficient way.

Financing offers various benefits over outright purchase. By acquiring your next Tadano or Liebherr mobile crane via a finance agreement, your capital outlay is reduced; therefore, you have more capital to invest in other areas of your business such as stock, people, training etc. Having a regular payment plan also helps you budget and forecast your expenditure much more accurately.

Our finance options

If your business is a limited company or a corporate body, has an annual turnover in excess of €/£1m, has been trading for more than 3 years and you’re looking to invest at least €/£50,000 in new construction, mining or heavy plant equipment, then one of our flexible finance options below could help you make it happen.

Hire Purchase

The most common type of asset or equipment financing is hire purchase. It allows you to ‘hire’ the asset in return for regular rental payments. ‘Ownership’ passes to you once the final repayment is made along with an ‘Option to Purchase’ fee. It’s a quick and easy way to ‘own’ a Volvo demolition crane or Bell dumper truck for example without having to pay the full amount upfront and in one go.

Features and benefits:

  • Payment structure and rentals are agreed at the outset so you can accurately plan for your expenditure, they can even vary to match any seasonal income/cashflow
  • On balance sheet financing – a you will own the equipment at the end of the finance term
  • A minimum deposit of 10% and the full VAT are both due on signing (rentals do not carry VAT) helping to reduce the initial outlay
  • Typical term: 1–7 years, you decide how long you need to hire the equipment or machinery to bring added value to your business
  • Rentals can be monthly or quarterly in advance or arrears; you choose which suits you best
  • You are responsible for all asset maintenance and insurance costs

End of term options

  • Option to Purchase for a nominal fee

Finance Lease

This is an agreement allowing you to ‘use’ the equipment, for example a Kobelco excavator, for an agreed term in return for regular rental payments. Ownership passes to you once the residual value is paid along with all rental payments during the lease term. You also have the option to extend the agreement and run the residual value lower or you can renew the equipment or machinery with a newer model.

Features and benefits:

  • Financing for up to 100% of the purchase price
  • VAT is payable on each rental, not on the purchase price of the equipment so there is no upfront cost
  • Off balance sheet financing agreement as you are paying for its use
  • Residual Value is agreed at the outset so there are no hidden costs at the end of the agreement, and it helps with your budgeting
  • Payment structure and rentals are agreed at the outset so you know exactly when and how much your expenditure will be, they can even vary to match any seasonal income/cashflow
  • Typical term: 1-7 years, you decide for how long you need to ‘use’ the equipment for
  • Rentals can be monthly or quarterly in advance or arrears, you choose which suits you best
  • You are responsible for all asset maintenance and insurance costs

End of term options

  • Extend – once the agreement has ended, you have the option to extend the agreement which run the residual value lower
  • Redeem – when all the rentals have been paid you can redeem your machine for the agreed residual value
  • Renew – for example if you leased a Kobelco excavator, you could use that as a trade-in against a new model so that you maintain your competitive edge with the latest technology and features

Financing business assets and equipment is a strategic business decision reflecting your future funding needs
