As supply chain demands accelerate, Australian businesses are rapidly rethinking how they invest in intralogistics, automation and warehouse optimisation. From robotics to high-performance storage systems, the opportunity to drive efficiency and resilience is clear but funding these investments remains a critical barrier. DLL is helping bridge that gap.
The global asset finance company is enabling organisations to move ahead with large-scale intralogistics and automation projects without the need for significant upfront capital. By structuring finance around asset lifecycles and operational cash flows, DLL supports businesses to access and deploy new technology while preserving liquidity and existing banking lines.
This model is particularly relevant as automation projects grow in scale and complexity. Solutions such as automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS), robotics and integrated logistics infrastructure require substantial investment, often before benefits are fully realised. Flexible options, including loans against new or existing assets, and sale-and-leaseback structures, help spread costs over time and unlock capital from existing assets, making transformation more achievable.
DLL’s approach also supports the full asset lifecycle, with financing available across new, used or refurbished equipment, and terms aligned to how assets perform over time. The result is a more practical, commercially sustainable pathway to modernising operations.
The demand for this type of funding is increasing, particularly across automated warehousing and logistics infrastructure projects, where businesses are looking to scale quickly while managing financial risk.
DLL will be discussing its capabilities at CeMAT Australia (Stand A23) in Melbourne at the end of this month (June 23-25), engaging with businesses exploring their next phase of operational investment. Leading the conversation is Sam Sawant, DLL Director, who specialises in intralogistics, automation and energy transition. Sam works closely with organisations to structure tailored financing solutions that align with both operational goals and long-term commercial outcomes.
As supply chains become more capital-intensive, financing is playing a more strategic role in enabling transformation. DLL’s approach reflects this shift, helping businesses move from intent to execution, and unlocking investment in the technologies shaping the future of supply chain performance.
