What is Factory Insurance?

The purpose of factory insurance is to protect factory owners and their manufacturing and production facilities from the various risks and liabilities associated with their operations.

Running a factory comes with a unique set of challenges due to the complex processes, equipment, materials, and personnel involved, and this insurance provides financial protection in case of unforeseen events or accidents that could disrupt operations, cause property damage, or lead to legal claims. Ultimately, ensuring continuity of service is the biggest priority for factory owners, and having the right protection for the stock, the machinery and the premises is vital.

There’s a range of different types of cover you could also consider including in your factory insurance policy too. This includes:

• Business interruption insurance
• Public liability insurance
• Employers’ liability insurance
• Equipment breakdown insurance
• Loss of license insurance

It’s important to remember that each insurer we work with has different limitations in terms of what they cover under their factory insurance policy, but that’s where we can help.

Our specialist team can take the information you provide about your factory and your business and use it to find the best cover options we have available, meaning you wouldn’t need to go through the arduous process of comparing various complex policies yourself. We can do that for you, and help you find a factory insurance policy that lives up to your expectations.
