Packaging Machinery and Conveyor Financing

Hand packing works until a big retail order shows up. Food and beverage producers, cosmetics and supplement brands, chemical blenders, co packers, and ecommerce fulfillment centers all hit a point where manual filling, capping, and boxing can't keep pace. Automating the end of the line can multiply output without multiplying headcount.

Packaging lines combine several machines from different builders, which makes budgeting tricky. Financing lets you install the whole line at once. MissionFund compares more than 60 lending sources to help you fund everything from a single labeler to a fully integrated system.

Packaging and Conveyor Equipment We Help You Finance

  • 01

    Fillers

    Filling machines put the product in the container, and the right style depends on what you're filling. Piston fillers handle thick products like sauces and creams, gravity and overflow fillers suit thin liquids, and auger fillers dose powders like protein and spices. Tabletop semiautomatic fillers help small brands scale, while inline and rotary machines serve high volume plants. Consider fill accuracy, changeover time, sanitary design for food and cosmetics, and how many container sizes you run.

  • 02

    Cappers

    Cappers apply and tighten closures consistently, which protects against leaks and customer complaints. Spindle cappers handle screw caps at high speeds, chuck cappers work well for trigger sprayers and pumps, and snap cappers press on lids. Many small operations start with handheld or tabletop torque cappers before stepping up to automatic inline units. Match the capper to your closure types and look for quick changeover parts and torque monitoring.

  • 03

    Labelers

    Labelers apply front, back, and wraparound labels at a steady, straight placement that hand labeling rarely matches. Wraparound labelers suit round bottles, while front and back models handle flat or oval containers. Print and apply systems add lot codes and shipping labels on the fly in warehouses. Consider label size, container variety, integrated coders for dates and lot numbers, and vision systems that confirm every label.

  • 04

    Case Packers

    Case packers load finished products into shipping cases, and case erectors and sealers often work alongside them. Pick and place systems handle delicate items, while wraparound case packers save corrugated costs at high volumes. Many operations add a palletizer or cobot palletizing cell at the end of the line to reduce heavy lifting. Evaluate product size range, case formats, speed, and floor space before buying. Used case packers can work well when your case sizes match their original setup.

  • 05

    Conveyor Systems

    Conveyors tie every station together and move product through warehouses and plants. Belt conveyors handle cartons and bags, roller conveyors move totes and cases, and sanitary tabletop chain conveyors carry bottles and jars. Accumulation tables buffer product between machines so one stoppage doesn't stall the whole line. Plan for layout, speed, controls, and future expansion. Conveyor is often custom configured, so installation and controls are a big part of the cost.

Why Finance Packaging Equipment Instead of Paying Cash

Automation pays for itself through labor savings and higher output, so matching payments to those savings makes sense. Financing also lets you capture a big retail or distribution order now, while your cash stays free for inventory and ingredients.

It keeps your credit lines open and helps you scale in steps. Many equipment purchases may qualify for Section 179 deductions; check with your tax professional.

What Your Financing Can Include

Depending on the lender, your financing can include:

  • Line integration, PLC controls, and HMI screens
  • Change parts for additional container and case sizes
  • Date coders, printers, and vision inspection systems
  • Checkweighers and metal detectors
  • Installation, factory acceptance testing, and training

Programs That Work Well for Packaging Equipment

  • Program

    Fair Market Value (FMV) Lease

    Lower payments with the option to upgrade, helpful when your product mix or packaging format may change.

  • Program

    $1 Buyout Lease

    Lease payments, then own it for one dollar at the end, ideal for conveyors and case sealers you'll run for many seasons.

New Business or Established, We Can Help

Launching a product brand or co packing business? Equipment financing is available from day one for startups, so you can automate early. Established plants can add lines as demand grows. See our industrial and construction page and warehouse storage and loading dock financing.

What You'll Need

Requests under $150K can often be approved on the application alone, which covers many single machines. For a full integrated line, financial statements can support a larger request. At funding, many deals need only a driver's license and the invoice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have a question?

Talk to a real person. We're happy to walk you through your options.

Can I finance machines from multiple builders together?

Often, yes. Many lenders combine several invoices into one agreement, including integration work.

Can I finance used packaging equipment?

Yes, depending on the lender. Share the make, model, and condition, and confirm it fits your containers.

Does financing cover change parts?

Depending on the lender, change parts for other container sizes can be included with the machine purchase. Buying them up front usually costs less than adding them later, and it lets you launch new products without delay.

Can a small brand finance a tabletop filler?

Yes. We help with requests starting at $10K, so compact fillers, cappers, and labelers can qualify.
