Drywall & Gypsum Financing
Drywall and gypsum manufacturers run energy-intensive calciners and board lines, buy gypsum and paper in volume, and ship to distributors and big-box retailers on extended terms. Factoring and PO financing keep the line running through payment gaps.
You're making wallboard and gypsum products against the housing cycle. Gypsum, paper, and additives are bought in volume, and the calciner doesn't cheaply idle — your distributor and big-box customers pay 45–90 days after shipment.
Big-box and pro-dealer concentration is real, and one large account can be 30–40% of your volume while receivables lag into the next quarter.
We match drywall and gypsum manufacturers to factoring against distributor and retailer receivables, PO financing on raw material buys, and equipment loans for the next calciner, board line, or kiln.
