Lab & Scientific Equipment Financing for Dealers

Why financing

Lab budgets are tight and grant-bound — financing keeps capital and runway intact

A diagnostics startup burning through a seed round or a university lab spending against a fixed grant can’t always drop $250,000 on an instrument at once. Financing lets them get the exact instrumentation they need now and spread the cost — while keeping cash for staff, reagents, and research. Your rep can show that monthly number the moment the spec is agreed.

1

Show the monthly cost of the instrument

A $250,000 mass spec is a capital-committee decision. $4,500 a month against funded research is a line item. Presenting the payment early keeps the deal moving while the budget gets sorted.

2

Send the application from the deal

When the lab is ready, your rep sends a financing application link from the HubSpot deal or your website. The customer applies through BNC Finance — no leaving the deal, no manual paperwork.

3

Preserve runway and cash

For startups and grant-funded labs, financing keeps capital liquid for hiring and consumables. Tax treatment of financed equipment can also be favorable — buyers should confirm with their own advisor.
