Protecting Your Production Line - Insurance Essentials for Ontario Manufacturers

Boardwalk Insurance Jul 26, 2024

Manufacturing risk is measured in downtime

A single failure can trigger lost production, missed shipments, and contract pressure. The goal is not only to pay for repairs, but to protect cash flow while you recover.

The coverages that matter most

• Commercial property for building, stock, and contents based on accurate values • Equipment breakdown for sudden mechanical or electrical failure • Business interruption and extra expense sized to a realistic restoration timeline • Product liability aligned to where your goods are sold and how they are used • General liability for third party injury or property damage at your facility • Transit or stock throughput if you ship goods across Canada or the US

Common gaps to avoid

• Values that lag reality, especially for stock and specialized equipment • Business interruption limits based on revenue rather than gross profit and recovery time • Supplier dependency that is not addressed with contingent coverage • Contract terms that require higher limits than your policy carries
