This Is Why You're Here
Why Packagings Come to Us Instead of Their Bank
A CPG brand awarded you a $400K annual packaging contract. Your current line can’t handle the volume. A $250K flow-wrapper and case packer would add the capacity — but the contract starts in 6 weeks.
Corrugated board prices jumped 15%. Your committed orders total $300K in packaging at old material quotes. You need $45K in extra working capital to honor pricing and keep the customer.
Your die-cutting press needs a $30K overhaul. Lead time on parts is 3 weeks. Every day of downtime costs $4K in delayed orders.
A pet food brand wants blister packaging for a new product launch — 500K units in 60 days. Custom thermoforming tooling is $42K and film inventory is $28K. They pay net-45. Miss this window and they go with a larger packager.
Your gluing system is causing a 6% reject rate on carton assembly. A new hot-melt system is $18K. At current production volume, that reject rate costs you $3,200/week in wasted board and labor to re-run bad cartons.
A CPG brand needed 2 million units packed and shipped in 6 weeks. We had the capacity but needed $85K for die tooling and corrugated inventory upfront. Basecamp funded us in 48 hours.

Why Packaging Businesses Choose Basecamp
Die Tooling Costs Hit Day One
Custom dies run $15K-$50K per job and they're due before the first box gets cut. Your CPG customer pays net-60. We fund tooling costs in 24-48 hours so you take the contract without draining reserves.
Corrugated Price Swings Don't Kill You
Board prices jumped 15% and you've got $300K in committed orders at old quotes. A credit line lets you absorb material increases and honor pricing instead of renegotiating every contract.
Line Upgrades That Match Contract Growth
A CPG brand awards you $400K annually but your current line can't handle volume. A $250K flow-wrapper upgrade is the answer. Equipment financing with the line as collateral — funded in 3-10 days.
CPG Clients Pay Slow. We Pay Fast.
Your biggest customers are Fortune 500 CPG brands. Great contracts, terrible payment terms — net-45 to net-60. Invoice factoring turns those invoices into same-day cash.

Packaging Business Loan FAQs
Packaging Manufacturing Loans & Packaging Company Financing — $10K to $10M+
Packaging is a weird business. Your customers are Fortune 500 CPG brands with great credit — and terrible payment terms. Net-45 to net-60 on every invoice. Meanwhile, you're fronting $85K for custom dies and $45K for corrugated inventory before the first case gets packed. And when board prices spike 15% mid-contract, you eat it or lose the account. Banks see packaging and think "boxes." Our lenders see recurring revenue from blue-chip customers.
Here's what I tell packaging companies — you've got the best collateral in manufacturing. Committed contracts from name-brand CPG companies. Flow wrappers and case packers that hold value. Recurring monthly volume. That's exactly what lenders want to see. A $250K line upgrade that doubles capacity? Equipment financing from 5% APR. A $75K working capital advance to cover die tooling on a new contract? Funded in 48 hours. 70+ lenders competing for your business. One application, no hard pull.
