Joint effort will secure scientific community's ability to lease equipment, instruments and laboratory furniture
In an ongoing effort to further its service offerings, VWR International, a global laboratory supply distributor, announced the formation of a customised product leasing programme.
Drawing upon the financial acumen and resources of Trilogy Leasing, a full-service leasing corporation based in Cranbury, NJ, USA, the programme will allow VWR customers to lease scientific equipment, instruments and furniture when the combined price equals $5000 or more.
As one of the USA's top leasing corporations, Trilogy will offer VWR customers a multitude of financing options that can be tailored to their individual needs.
In a statement issued by both companies, "Leasing will provide VWR customers with important advantages, including tax benefits, capital conservation and the ability to remain at the cutting edge of technology.
In addition, leasing keeps credit lines accessible as payments come out of the operating budget".
Trilogy will determine the credit-worthiness of each applicant, provide lease documentation, and be responsible for ongoing payment and collection.
VWR will retain direct contact for customer service on product-related issues.
