Thermal Analyzer Leasing for Labs

Characterize material behavior—without tying up your budget. Lease the thermal analyzer that fits your workflow.

What Is Thermal Analysis?

Thermal analysis measures how physical and chemical properties of materials change with temperature. It’s frequently used in materials research, pharmaceuticals, and polymers for studying stability, transitions, and decomposition. The technique supports product development, quality assurance, and regulatory compliance by revealing how materials respond to heat, pressure, and time.

Why Lease a Thermal Analyzer?

Thermal analyzers—including TGA, DSC, and DTA systems—are crucial for understanding material behavior in dynamic conditions. They help researchers and QA teams evaluate thermal stability, detect transitions, and predict performance under stress.

But these systems can be expensive to acquire, and purchasing one outright may delay essential upgrades. Leasing allows you to add or expand thermal analysis capabilities quickly, without capital strain. It's ideal for R&D teams launching new materials, pharma labs validating formulations, or production teams running routine QA.

Where Leasing a Thermal Analyzer Adds Value

Thermal analysis is essential for understanding how materials respond to temperature, whether you're validating product stability, studying phase transitions, or optimizing formulations.

Leasing can be especially valuable when:

  • You're scaling R&D or quality assurance and need differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), TGA, or DTA capabilities without a large capital outlay.
  • Your team needs to test across wider temperature ranges or under specific gas environments but lacks the budget to upgrade outright.
  • You want to preserve capital for core research while still accessing precision instrumentation with service and support included.

Whether you're in materials science, pharma, or polymer development, leasing a thermal analyzer helps you generate accurate, reproducible data without delaying timelines or straining your budget.

Helping Scientists Scale & Succeed

"We used Excedr when it was time for us to make a large capital equipment purchase and the whole leasing process was smooth, quick, and seamless.

As a busy start-up CEO, I am always aware of how important it is to keep our science progressing while on a tight budget.

Working with Excedr made it possible for us to accelerate our scientific discovery pipeline without a large outlay of capital."

"Building a biotech is a lot of work. Excedr has been a dynamite partner in making that scaling happen.

They were a great partner when scaling Distributed Bio from an 8 member lab team to 35 members by the time of acquisition. When I started Centivax, Jon was one of the first people I called.

I recommend them for any biotech startup."

"Securing top-tier lab equipment while managing cash flow is a constant challenge. Excedr has been an invaluable partner in helping KiraGen Bio access the high-quality instrumentation we need without the heavy upfront costs.

Their flexible leasing options and outstanding support allow us to focus on advancing our research rather than worrying about equipment procurement and maintenance. For any biotech startup looking to scale efficiently, I can’t recommend Excedr enough."

Aaron Edwards

Co-Founder & CEO, KiraGen Bio

"Excedr helped us to finance a BLI system about a year ago. Sylvia did an excellent job at helping us to understand our options, since our company was new to equipment financing.

The leasing process was fast and easy when compared with self-funding our purchase, plus the speed and ease with which Excedr onboarded us freed up our team’s time to focus on research and grant management.
