Product Guarantee Insurance
Product guarantee insurance covers the cost of compensating anyone who is injured by a faulty product that your business designs, manufactures or supplies.
You should consider a product guarantee insurance if your business designs, manufactures or supplies a physical product, as your business may be held legally responsible for any injuries to people or damage to property caused by a faulty product.
You can be held liable for faulty products even if you did not manufacture them. You may be liable for paying compensation if:
- Your business’s name is on the product
- Your business repairs, refurbishes or changes a product
- You imported the product
- You cannot identify the product’s manufacturer, or the manufacturer has gone out of business.
Product guarantee insurance protects you against the cost of compensation for:
- Personal injuries caused by a faulty product
- Loss of or damage to property
- Unforeseeable circumstances such as product faults that your quality control system could not identify.
