Automated Packaging Systems Introduces Stimulus Terms for Equipment Financing

June 19, 2009

STREETSBORO, OH – June 18, 2009 – Automated Packaging Systems has introduced three new financing programs that enable new equipment purchases with minimal cash investment upfront. Rent to Own, Lease to Own, and 90 Days Same As Cash are new financing options designed to help manufacturers lower their cost of packaging, improve their productivity, and realize a return on investment while deferring payments over time.

Rent to Own” is a 12 month, interest-free payment plan available for most Autobag® and SidePouch™ bag packaging systems. Simply take the purchase price and divide by twelve to get monthly payment terms that allow customers to improve operating efficiencies as they save money that will pay for the new systems.

Lease to Own” terms are offered in a variety of short term and long term programs that can be customized to meet the unique needs of individual customers. The company offers a popular $1.00 Buyout Program that makes ownership affordable.

90 Days Same As Cash” is a convenient way to get your new packaging line up and running while spreading the investment out over a convenient timeframe. Terms are 33% down, 33% due in 45 days, and 34% due in 90 days. This stimulus financing package is available on all Autobag AB-series baggers and Print-n-Pack™ systems. Automated Packaging Systems has introduced these three new financing options for most of its bag packaging systems, but only for a limited time. These special terms will expire August 31, 2009.
