Hose & Belting Financing

Hose and belting manufacturers buy rubber, reinforcement, and fittings in volume, run extrusion and vulcanization lines, and ship to industrial and OEM customers on extended terms. Factoring and PO financing keep the lines running through payment gaps.

You're extruding and vulcanizing hose, belting, and conveyor products for industrial and OEM customers. Rubber, reinforcement, and fittings are bought in volume, and the customer pays 45–90 days after shipment.

Extrusion and vulcanization don't cheaply idle, and one industrial distributor or OEM can dominate your book for a quarter.

We match hose and belting manufacturers to factoring against customer receivables, PO financing on raw material buys, and equipment loans for the next extruder, vulcanizer, or press.

What underwriters will actually ask for

Hose & Belting files have a specific documentation pattern. Bringing these up front usually cuts weeks off the timeline.

  • Active business registration

    Standard business registration for the customers in your AR aging.

  • Aged accounts receivable and top-10 customer list

    Distributor and OEM concentration above ~40% may shape the reserve, not disqualify.

  • Trailing 12 months of financials

    Interim P&L, balance sheet, and a breakdown of hose, belting, and conveyor revenue.

  • Rubber, reinforcement, and fitting supplier list (for PO financing)

    PO financing pays your rubber, reinforcement, and fitting suppliers directly against confirmed orders.

  • Equipment invoice or quote (for equipment financing)

    Extruders, vulcanizers, presses, and winders finance cleanly — new and used.

The factor underwrites your receivables, not your energy bill. Factoring bridges shipment-to-payment; extrusion costs stay part of your operating cycle.

No. We are an independent business financing referral service and are not paid by you. Our funding partners compensate us only after you actually receive your funds; in California and Missouri they instead pay us a fixed fee per inquiry, whether or not you are funded.
