3D Bioprinter Leasing for Labs

Print tissue, scaffolds, or cellular structures—without tying up your budget. Lease the 3D bioprinter that fits your workflow.

What Is a Bioprinter?

A bioprinter uses bioinks and specialized deposition techniques to create cell-based structures and tissue models. It's widely used in regenerative medicine, pharmaceutical development, and biomaterials research. The technology supports advanced modeling, cell viability studies, and tissue engineering across preclinical R&D and translational workflows.

Why Lease a Bioprinter?

3D bioprinters are essential for cutting-edge tissue fabrication, drug screening, and organ-on-a-chip development. But purchasing one can demand a large capital outlay—especially for systems with multi-material capabilities, integrated imaging, or sterile enclosures.

Leasing offers a faster, more flexible path to implementation. It’s ideal for academic labs exploring bioprinting for the first time, startups developing next-gen therapeutics, or production teams expanding into personalized medicine without long procurement delays.

Where Leasing a Bioprinter Adds Value

Leasing makes sense when:

  • You’re building a tissue engineering program and want advanced print precision without large upfront spend.
  • Your team is testing multiple biomaterials or cell types and needs flexibility in printhead types or configurations.
  • You’re expanding R&D or pilot production capabilities and want service and support without tying up capital.

Whether you're validating constructs or scaling up biofabrication, leasing helps you stay agile while preserving your lab's 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.

The lease of our Zeiss EVO10 electron microscope has significantly impacted our outside analysis costs, realizing a significant savings in the 1st year.

Having the instrument on-site has greatly improved our response times to field issues and fabrication challenges, while improving our Engineering and Production Teams' overall understanding of our product lines."
