Funding to say yes to the bigger order.
Whether it’s a new production line, a big contract to fund or more expensive borrowing to replace, a business loan gives you a lump sum and fixed repayments. We match you with one specialist who works with manufacturers.
- £10k to £1m, unsecured or secured
- Fund growth, contracts, refits or refinancing
- No business plan needed to start
Growth in manufacturing always costs money first.
A loan or working capital facility can fund the materials and labour before the contract pays.
Specialist lenders usually start with your accounts and bank statements, not a plan.
Refinancing into one loan can lower your monthly costs.
What lenders often look at for manufacturers
Trading history
Filed accounts and recent bank statements show how the business performs.
Order book
Contracts and repeat customers help show where repayments will come from.
Assets
Machinery and property can support a larger or cheaper secured loan.
The right product
Machinery is often better on asset finance, and slow payers better on invoice finance. Your specialist will say which fits.
Is a business loan right for your business?
Usually a good fit
- Limited company or LLP
- Usually 12 months or more trading
- Turnover and margins that can cover repayments
Harder to fund
- Very new businesses with no accounts
- Recent losses with no clear recovery
- Missed payments still outstanding
Not sure? That's what the call is for. If it isn't the right fit, your specialist will tell you and suggest what might work instead.

Questions from manufacturing and engineering businesses
Asset finance is often cheaper for machinery because the machine is the security. We’re adding asset finance soon. For now, your specialist can still advise.
