Packaging Equipment Hire & Rent-to-Buy

View Hire Machines

Start faster. For less.

The rental option allows you to acquire some equipment without tying up cash or capital, and offers flexibility throughout the terms of the agreement.

Fixed payments with tax incentives.

Not sure how quickly your product volumes will grow? Trialling a new product? Or just don’t have the capital to get it done quickly. Icon Rentals can support you through this exciting phase.

Buy or Rent. Short or Long Term.

If purchasing new equipment is not financially viable or want to get started before you have the finances, Icon Rentals can offer rental options on many of the machines we supply.

With predictable monthly payments, and end-of-term options including purchasing, re-renting, upgrading or simply return the equipment.

Should You Hire or Buy?

Hire usually makes sense when your volumes are uncertain or growing, when you are trialling a new product, or when you want to start before finance is in place. Buying usually suits stable, long-term, high-volume production. Rent-to-buy sits in between: you start on monthly payments and can own the machine later.
