Spread the cost of a process chiller from £3,000 to £70,000+ with flexible finance options. HP, lease, or refinance
Yes, chiller processs are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £3,000 to £70,000, and most deals are written over 12–60 months with a deposit of around 0–15%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

This equipment qualifies for the Annual Investment Allowance, so a purchase or HP agreement can be deducted against taxable profit in the year of purchase. Finance lease payments are typically deductible in full from profit as they are paid, and refinancing an owned asset does not change its capital allowances position.
Process chillers are bought by moulders to hold mould temperature and cycle time; without adequate cooling a press either runs slower to let parts set naturally or produces warped, dimensionally inconsistent mouldings. A portable chiller is commonly bought with a single new press as a direct part of that order, while a central chiller serving multiple machines is usually a later, standalone decision as a factory adds presses and wants one cooling system rather than a unit at every machine. Replacement is typically driven by adding presses that exceed the existing chiller’s cooling capacity, or a move to a central system for energy efficiency, rather than mechanical failure of a well-maintained unit.
Some specialist lenders consider businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options may be available. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender.
