If you prefer to own your Hitachi machine but are looking for a way to spread your investment over multiple payments over a long period of time, our Lease programme is the best choice for you. Lease is an on-balance solution, so the equipment will appear on your balance sheet. At the end of the contract you will have full ownership of your Hitachi equipment.

Our Rental programme is the best solution for you if you are looking for an off-balance solution and not looking for ownership of your Hitachi equipment. When the rental contract comes to an end, you can either choose to renew the contract and upgrade to the latest Hitachi model available, extend the existing contract or in some cases buy the machine you have had in use.
