Packaging

Packaging firms depend on production lines, warehouse stock and customer credit.

Coverage to consider

The usual priorities are machinery breakdown, stored inventory, unpaid invoices, and claims or recalls tied to faulty products.

Machinery breakdown
Can pay repair costs and lost revenue when a packaging line suddenly fails mechanically or electrically.
Can include mechanical faults, electrical faults, replacement or repair and lost earnings
Trade credit
Typically reimburses unpaid invoices if a packaging customer defaults, goes bankrupt or pays long after the due date.
Can include unpaid customer invoices, buyer insolvency, prolonged default and political events
Product recall
May pay to withdraw and replace faulty packaging, plus lost income and extra expense from the recall.
Can include cost of recall, business interruption, cost of replacements and crisis response
Product liability
Typically responds to claims against a producer when its packaging harms a user or damages other property.
Can include injury to people, damage to property and product defects
Warehouse
Often combines coverage for a packaging warehouse’s building and stock with liability for injury or damage to others.
Can include buildings and stock, general liability claims and business interruption
