Wine Equipment Rental
The equipment you need to apply your craft
Producing wine to your high standards relies on a lot specialised of equipment, but it can be a hassle trying to get a loan and do the work yourself.
Instead, we offer equipment rental personalised to suit your cash flow. Let us do the work of procuring it for you, while you just pay a simple monthly invoice.
Equipment Available
We provide rental for a wide array of wine equipment, including presses, pumps, tanks, chillers, and fermenters. For anything not mentioned or that’s hard to source, have a chat with us anyway – we nearly always find a way to make it work.
How Wine Equipment Rental Works
1.
You choose the equipment and negotiate pricing with the supplier
2.
You tell us what you need, and we confirm pricing with supplier
3.
Once confirmed, we prepare a rental proposal. You look at this and see if it works for you. We can make adjustments for you, so that it’s best tailored to meet cash flow needs
4.
You sign a contract and make an initial payment to secure the order
5.
We order the equipment – managing freight, insurance for the shipment, and foreign exchange
6.
You receive the equipment, then make monthly rental payments for a set term that we decided on together during the rental proposal

Frequently Asked Questions
This is an Operating Lease: we are hiring the assets out to you. Setting up the lease in this manner means you can fully expense all the lease payment to your P&L*.
*Please note: Sarnia Capital makes no guarantee that rental payments are tax-deductible. It is strongly recommended that you seek your own independent tax advice.
Unlike traditional banks or other financiers, we don’t provide a loan with an attached interest rate; we are simply renting you barrels for a set period. Instead, we provide an asset rental monthly fee based on:
- the cost of the assets,
- the cost to cover our key risks such as foreign exchange,
- and the administration costs we incur in providing you with a customised rental solution.
From here we calculate a monthly rental figure.
By quoting you a fixed monthly rental, we take on the exchange rate risk so you don’t have to worry about currency fluctuations. To achieve this, we use multiple currency hedging strategies over our entire portfolio of asset purchases.
You are responsible for insuring the equipment
At end of lease, you can either return the equipment, enter into a newly negotiated lease, or Sarnia Capital may offer the equipment for purchase.
An asset rental through Sarnia Capital is entirely different to bank finance or a cash purchase. The benefits include:

- Payments may be fully expensed to your P&L*
- Terms and repayment dates structured to best suit your cash flow requirements
- A fixed monthly payment, not dependent on interest rate and currency fluctuations
- Drastically reduced admin time and costs on your side
