Is asset-based lending (abl) a good fit for hvac & refrigeration equipment manufacturing?

Yes — asset-based lending (abl) is one of the programs we most commonly place for hvac & refrigeration equipment manufacturing shops. Established manufacturers with meaningful receivables, inventory, and/or equipment who want a flexible revolving line.

Do I have to give up equity?

No. Every program we place is non-dilutive. You keep 100% ownership of your shop.

Can a residential HVAC or commercial refrigeration manufacturer qualify for factoring?

Yes. Advance rates depend on your distributor or OEM customer's credit, not your plant size. A unit builder invoicing a distributor typically factors as cleanly as a large OEM.

Can PO financing cover copper, compressors, and refrigerant buys?

Yes. PO financing pays your component suppliers directly against confirmed orders so the assembly line keeps fed through seasonal spikes.

How is ABL different from factoring?

ABL is a revolving line you draw against; factoring is the outright sale of specific invoices. ABL usually has lower cost of capital but stricter eligibility and monthly reporting requirements.

Why hvac & refrigeration equipment manufacturing shops choose asset-based lending (abl)

You're building residential HVAC, commercial refrigeration, heat pumps, and air-handling units against a seasonal calendar — copper, sheet metal, compressors, and controls bought in volume, then shipped to distributors and OEMs who pay 45, 60, sometimes 90 days later.

Summer and winter demand peaks front huge material and labor cost while the receivables lag into the next quarter. Distributor concentration is real, and refrigerant and component lead times add pressure.

Asset-Based Lending (ABL) is one of the most direct ways to close that gap. Revolving lines secured by receivables, inventory, and equipment.
