About Mecalac
Mecalac is based in Annecy, France and describes itself as an international leader in compact equipment for urban construction sites, according to Mecalac. It designs innovative compact machinery tailored for tight urban jobs.
Mecalac equipment
Mecalac builds compact excavators, wheeled excavators, swing loaders, site dumpers and backhoe loaders. Several of its machines combine functions, for example an excavator that can also work as a loader, which suits contractors with limited space and smaller fleets.
How lenders view Mecalac machines
Mecalac is less common in North America than some compact brands, so lenders look at dealer support and resale values alongside hours, condition and attachments. Its versatility can help a small contractor do more with fewer machines, which lenders may consider when reviewing cash flow.
Financing Mecalac equipment
New machines through an established dealer are simplest to finance. Comparing several lenders helps on used units.
How Mecalac equipment financing works
Most Mecalac purchases are financed with an equipment loan or a lease. A loan gives you ownership from day one, with the lender registering a security interest (PPSA in Canada, UCC in the USA). A lease keeps title with the lessor and can lower the monthly payment, with a buyout, renewal or return option at the end.
What lenders check on a Mecalac construction equipment
Lenders look at machine hours, service records, undercarriage or tire condition, and whether the unit is tied to contracts or a steady work program. Used machines with strong resale demand are usually easier to finance than specialized units.
Expect to provide a credit application, recent business bank statements, the dealer quote or bill of sale with serial number and hours, and financial statements or tax returns for larger amounts.

Tax treatment of Mecalac equipment
In Canada, power-operated movable equipment used to excavate, move, place or compact earth, rock, concrete or asphalt generally falls in CCA Class 38. Confirm the class for your exact asset with your accountant. With a loan, you generally claim capital cost allowance and deduct interest. With a true operating lease, lease payments are generally deductible instead. See the CRA classes of depreciable property. In the USA, Section 179 and bonus depreciation may apply; see IRS Publication 946. Always confirm with your accountant.
