How to Qualify For Used Industrial Equipment Financing

March 8, 2022

To increase growth and achieve long-term success, industrial companies need access to heavy equipment and specialized machinery to meet production deadlines and fulfill customer orders.

Business owners can achieve these goals while also saving valuable capital by applying for used industrial equipment financing for purchases through Texas Gulf Bank.

We invite you to learn more about the key aspects of used industrial equipment loans as well as the application process. By working with our bank for used equipment financing, your company can access the tools and equipment you need for daily operations, major projects, and expansion plans in a strategic, fiscally responsible way.

Why Companies Need Used Industrial Equipment

Securing large-scale machinery and specialized industrial equipment is an important investment, but it can be a financial drain to pay full price for brand-new equipment.

Rather than spending a large amount of available cash on a major capital expense, companies can secure financing options for used equipment that helps spread out the cost over time. This way, you constantly have access to reliable, time-tested used equipment and machinery.

Choosing used industrial equipment means business owners can:

  • Choose equipment that is already proven to work in their industry.
  • Remain competitive within their market.
  • Better anticipate maintenance or repair needs.
  • See immediate productivity results.

By purchasing used machinery and specialized equipment, your company will be able to test new technology and experience improved efficiency without the risks that come with using new, untested equipment.

The end result of purchasing used equipment is that the cost savings can be directed towards more critical business needs and goals.

Which Industries Need Heavy Equipment Financing?

A wide variety of industries rely on used industrial equipment to meet production goals, construction deadlines, and manufacturing orders. With access to newer but used specialized machines and heavy equipment, your company can realize growth in both productivity and revenue. 

Industries that can benefit from purchasing used equipment include:

  • Construction
  • Land Development
  • Industrial Distribution
  • Manufacturing
  • Fabrication
  • Trucking/Logistics

Business owners can use financing options for many types of used equipment, allowing them to focus resources on other areas such as research and development, sales, recruiting, and new customer acquisition.
