Equipment breakdown

Equipment breakdown coverage handles more than just boilers and machinery. It protects other electrical and mechanical equipment like computers, copiers, printers, barcode scanners, and security and alarm systems.


Product recall

Product recall insurance covers expenses associated with recalling a product from the market. Your reputation is on the line, so you’ll want to know you have the support and coverage to get this done as quickly as possible.


Manufacturers’ errors and omissions (E&O)

Manufacturers’ E&O insurance responds if you are legally obligated to pay for a financial loss sustained by others due to an error or omission in the designing, manufacturing, or installation of your product. In certain circumstances, Acuity’s broad coverage for losses includes the repair or replacement of your defective product, your customer’s subsequent financial loss, and your legal defense costs.





Product liability

Another key area of protection involves lawsuits. If you are sued because a product you manufactured caused injury to someone, Acuity's product liability coverage can protect you.


Cybersecurity

Another key area of protection involves lawsuits. If you are sued because a product you manufactured caused injury to someone, Acuity's product liability coverage can protect you.
