Asset-Based Lending (ABL) for Medical Device Manufacturing shops

Borrow against what you already own. We match medical device manufacturing manufacturers with the asset-based lending (abl) structure that fits how you actually run — no equity given up, no application, origination, or closing fees to you.

Why medical device manufacturing shops choose asset-based lending (abl)

You spent years and serious money getting a device to market — cleanroom buildout, validation, 510(k) or PMA work, ISO 13485 quality system, the whole stack. Then the invoices go out to hospitals, IDNs, GPOs, and distributors, and the cash comes back in… eventually.

That's the disconnect we solve. Your receivables are strong, your buyers are AAA-credit institutions, and your working capital is still tight because everything pays slowly.

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

What medical device manufacturing shops get

  • Line scales with your business
  • Often more flexible than traditional bank debt
  • Rates typically lower than factoring for the right profile

How it works

  1. 1The lender evaluates the value of your eligible collateral (AR, inventory, equipment).
  2. 2A borrowing base formula determines your available line.
  3. 3You draw and repay as needed, with monthly reporting.

Cash-flow realities we see in medical device manufacturing

  • Hospitals, health systems, IDNs, and GPOs on 60–120 day terms
  • Long validation, qualification, and 510(k) timelines that eat cash before revenue
  • Cleanroom, tooling, inspection, and sterilization equipment costs
  • ISO 13485 / 21 CFR Part 820 quality-system investment and audit cycles
  • Distributor consignment and stocking arrangements that delay revenue recognition

Yes. Hospital, IDN, and GPO receivables are commonly factored. Because these buyers routinely stretch to 60, 90, even 120 days, factoring is one of the strongest fits in medical device manufacturing.

Yes. Regulatory class doesn't disqualify you — invoice quality, buyer credit, and clean documentation matter more. Partners familiar with 21 CFR Part 820 quality systems make onboarding smoother.
