Why Manufacturing Insurance Matters

Protect your business when things go wrong around people, products, and property

Manufacturing environments involve moving machinery, chemicals, heat processes, forklifts, production lines, and complex logistics. A visitor slips on an oily surface. A contractor is injured near machinery. A faulty batch of goods causes financial loss to a customer. A fire damages your production line and interrupts operations. These are all events that can lead to costly claims.

Manufacturing insurance including public liability, product liability, machinery protection, and property cover — helps protect your business when a third party alleges injury, damage, or financial loss. It can respond to legal defence costs, settlements, repairs, and investigation expenses, subject to policy terms.

Coverite Insurance works with manufacturers across Australia, from small machining workshops to large industrial operations. We assess your production processes, machinery risks, supply-chain exposures, and customer contracts to help you secure cover that mirrors the way you operate not a generic package that overlooks critical risks.
