Product Recall & Product Contamination Insurance

Whether you are a manufacturer, processor or distributor of goods, you should have Product Recall Liability insurance. A Product Recall policy protects your business from the significant financial and reputational costs associated with a product recall.

With recalls in Australia on the rise in 2016, the importance of Product Recall insurance is increasing.

Whether it be products like food, beverages, smart devices, electrical equipment, cabling, cars, clothing products or household appliances the product recall process doesn’t come cheap, and could be highly damaging the reputation of even the largest companies.

A Product Recall policy is there to cover you for the costs associated with a product recall:

• Cover for the cost of withdrawing products off shelves
• Cover for the cost of replacing the recalled product on shelves with ones that are deemed safe
• Cover for expert advice and assistance on managing your brand reputation in the public domain. Product recalls are increasingly receiving widespread media publicity.

Product Recall will look to significantly reduce the impact a product recall can have on your business, allowing you to make decisions for the future of your business with greater confidence.
