Product liability is not theoretical
When a product fails, costs can include injury claims, property damage, legal defence, recalls, and reputational damage. The exposure starts as soon as goods leave your control.
How product liability insurance helps
• Legal defence costs and expert investigation support • Settlements or judgments where coverage applies • Claims from bodily injury or property damage tied to product use • Protection that supports customer and distributor relationships
Common claim triggers
• Design defects or incomplete specifications • Manufacturing defects from process variation or contamination • Labeling and instruction issues that lead to misuse • Supplier component failures that still land on the manufacturer
Practical prevention that reduces claims
• Documented quality control and testing procedures • Traceability for batches and supplier inputs • Clear labeling, warnings, and usage instructions • Incident reporting workflow and fast containment actions
