Leasing of Photocopiers, Printers, Scanners and other Office Equipment

What Is Leasing?

Capital equipment leasing is a tax-efficient, flexible way of funding the purchase of equipment such as photocopiers, printers, scanners etc.

For any CST purchase of £1,000 or more, we utilise the services of many different leading finance partners to provide a lease option on our range of products. This includes such household names as Siemens Financial Services, GE Capital and more - all of whom are regulated by the Financial Services Authority. 

Why Should You Lease?

The leasing of equipment such as photocopiers, MFDs, printers etc is favoured within the UK by many businesses. The advantages leasing has over capital are numerous, including tax relief benefits and the ability to spread the cost of the equipment across a longer period than purchasing outright, which helps cash flow. When purchasing outright, the capital spent is effectively tied up in depreciating equipment. The flexibility of CST lease agreements also means that, should you feel the need to upgrade your equipment after a period of time, perhaps because your needs have changed, you can often re-visit the lease agreement and replace the equipment with little effect on your quarterly/monthly payments. 

Who Can Lease Equipment?

If you have an established business with a good credit history, then leasing will almost certainly be available to you as a finance option. Should you be considering leasing a capital purchase from CST, we will take the headache out of the administrative side of the agreement and propose the agreement to the relevant finance partner on your behalf. Once the financiers are satisfied that the contract is agreeable, they will authorise finance and the deal will be completed.
