Insurance for the manufacturing sector

From processing to fabrication, we're here to help you fine-tune your business to keep it performing efficiently. Crombie Lockwood's brokers have in-depth experience in arranging insurance for manufacturing companies big and small. We’ve gained this experience over the years by listening, rolling up our sleeves and working alongside manufacturers to understand your business and figure out the right insurance solution to protect you from financial risk.

Who needs manufacturing insurance?

No two manufacturers are the same and manufacturing insurance is not a one-size-fits-all product. In fact, a one-size-fits-all approach to your risk management could easily make you vulnerable, which is why our expert brokers work with you to help identify your unique risks.

Whether you’re producing food, clothing, car parts, electrical components, furniture, medicines, chemicals, plastics or recycled goods, we know how to get the best manufacturing insurance to cover your specialist plant and equipment, and risks from point of supply to sale and beyond.

Manufacturers are increasingly being held responsible for property damage or bodily injury arising from their products. This responsibility extends beyond the point of sale. As a manufacturer, you need excellent product liability insurance to protect you against these risks, as well as general business liability insurance and cover for staff, plant and property.

Working with Crombie Lockwood

Our brokers work with you and your business to ensure the right risk management solutions with competitive terms are put in place for your business and cover:

• Property
• Plant
• Equipment
• Vehicles
• Business interruption
• People
• Liability

Some of the aspects we consider in designing your manufacturing liability insurance programme are the risks inherent to the product, how it will be used and the markets where it will be distributed.

If your product has a particularly complex risk profile, we have existing relationships with underwriters who specialise in offering covers in these complex areas which we can draw on to secure solutions that fit your specific needs.
