Lyophilizer Leasing for Labs
Lease the lyophilizer that fits your workflow. Stabilize and preserve—without tying up your budget.
What Is a Lyophilizer?
A lyophilizer, or freeze dryer, removes moisture from samples through sublimation—freezing the material, then reducing pressure so ice transitions directly to vapor. It’s widely used in pharmaceutical manufacturing, diagnostics, biotech R&D, and sample preservation for its ability to stabilize sensitive materials.
Why Lease a Lyophilizer?
Lyophilization is critical for stabilizing biologics, extending sample shelf life, and preserving molecular integrity—but systems with vacuum integration, condenser controls, and automated drying cycles can be costly to acquire outright.
Whether you're scaling diagnostics, prepping reagents, or running pilot batches of therapeutics, leasing gives you access to advanced freeze drying systems that match your throughput, validation, and workflow needs—without the burden of capital expenditure.
Where Leasing a Lyophilizer Adds Value
Lyophilizers are essential for stabilizing biologics, reagents, and diagnostic materials—supporting everything from R&D to GMP production. But advanced systems can involve steep upfront costs.
Leasing can be a smart choice when:
- You’re scaling production or diagnostics—Access pilot or GMP systems without delays.
- You handle sensitive biologics or reagents—Protect stability while preserving capital.
- You’re optimizing sample prep workflows—Deploy full setups without ownership risk.
Whether stabilizing proteins or supporting preclinical work, leasing a lyophilizer delivers precision—without capital strain.

CEO, IgGenix
"Excedr's lease structure helped us extend our cash runway, forecast our projects with greater accuracy, and track and manage upcoming expenses more effectively, putting us in a stronger position for our next venture round."
Shawn Gahr
COO & Co-Founder, Novoron
"Building a biotech is tough, and Excedr has been a dynamite partner in scaling. They supported Distributed Bio’s growth from an 8-person 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."
Jacob Glanville
CEO & President, Centivax
"Excedr has been invaluable for KiraGen Bio, helping us access high-quality equipment without heavy upfront costs.
Their flexible leasing and reliable support let us focus on advancing research rather than equipment procurement and maintenance."
Aaron Edwards
Co-Founder & CEO, KiraGen Bio
"Excedr helped us finance a BLI system when we were new to equipment leasing.
Sylvia guided us through our options, and the fast, easy process freed our team to focus on research and grant management instead of funding logistics."
