Whitney and Bertsch brands, building more than 145 years of combined manufacturing heritage. From its Illinois manufacturing and support operations, Piranha serves fabrication businesses across all 50 U.S. states and North America.

Equipment refinancing is a financing arrangement that uses qualifying equipment a business already owns, or has substantial equity in, as collateral for new financing. The proceeds may support working capital, growth initiatives, or restructuring an existing equipment obligation. Eligibility, available amounts, repayment terms, and collateral requirements vary based on the equipment, lender standards, and the business’s financial profile.
