Office Furniture and Essentials

Many companies prefer leasing over purchasing, because leasing allows you to pay for your equipment as you make money through its use. Instead of spending working capital on equipment (a depreciating asset), you can invest in more profitable areas, to maximize your return-on-investment and return-on-equity. Or you can preserve your cash for emergencies. Carlton has financed more than $100 million worth of office equipment, including:

- Workstations
- Furniture
- Dictation equipment
- Conference room equipment
- Security systems
- Computer systems and printers
- Tenant improvements
- Telecommunication systems
- A/V equipment
- Video conferencing systems

“I feel that my questions are important to Carlton. They’re responsive and they turn things around quickly. Carlton has provided good consulting research that has allowed us to make intelligent decisions.”
Mike Wolski, Director of Leasing, Worldco

Technology

The pace of innovation means that today's technology is often obsolete tomorrow. Leasing lets you have the most current technology equipment available, because at any time during your lease contract you can easily upgrade and refresh your equipment, so you avoid obsolescence. Talk to us about:

- LAN/WAN
- Client server systems
- Networking equipment
- Personal computers and printers
- Telecommunication equipment
- Sales automation equipment (i.e., laptops, PDAs)

Manufacturing

Leasing lets you acquire more equipment, including more expensive, feature-rich equipment, because you aren’t limited to your current cash or credit line. Meanwhile, your bank lines remain available for other uses. We can help manufacturers with all of their equipment needs, including:

- Production equipment
- Energy management equipment
- HVAC
- Trucks
- CNC equipment
- CAD/CAM systems
- Robotics
- Material handling equipment
- Racking and shelving

Municipal

Like businesses, governments have a variety of capital equipment needs. Often, however, their needs exceed their budgets. Customized financing is an excellent option when budgets are limited. For over 20 years, Carlton has worked with municipalities of all sizes. We’ve customized programs for:

- Building projects (new construction, additions-expansion)
- Computer equipment
- Rescue equipment, such as ambulances
- Fire-fighting equipment, such as fire engines
- Telecommunication systems
- Energy management equipment
- Office furniture and fixtures

Retail and Hospitality

Lease payments are immune to inflation. They’re based on the value of the dollar when the lease is signed, and that value does not change. In contrast, bank lines of credit have variable rates. We can design programs for all retail and hospitality needs:

- Point of sale equipment
- Racking and shelving
- Furniture and fixtures
- Computers
- Signage
- Kitchen equipment
- Casino and gaming equipment

Other

There are a host of other reasons to lease. There are no down payments, you choose the payment stream that best fits your budget, you maintain your equity, and you don’t weaken your balance sheet. There are also a host of other kinds of equipment that Carlton can lease, such as:

- Fitness equipment
- Publishing equipment
- Broadcasting equipment
- Construction equipment
- Banking systems
- Imaging and archiving systems
- Surveillance equipment
- And much more

“Carlton is different from others because they’re flexible; they service our needs. Decisions are made right there — they don’t have to run it up the flagpole. And Carlton’s people have been there for a long time — they know what they’re doing.”
Steve Kerzman, Controller, Life Time Fitness
