Types of insurance for printing companies

Insurance for printers can include a variety of individual coverages, including:

Business Auto Insurance for Printers covers company vehicles driven by your employees and provides protection in case of an accident. For example, if your employee accidently causes a rear-end collision while delivering printed materials to a customer, auto insurance would help cover the costs.

Essential Property Insurance for Printing Companies helps protect your buildings, printing and engraving equipment and other property against physical damage. For example, if the roof of your building is damaged due to wind, property insurance would help cover it.

Printers General Liability Insurance protects your business from liability exposures such as injuries or damage to a customer's property. For example, if a customer were to slip and fall at your print shop, general liability would help cover the costs.

Printers Errors and Omissions (E&O), also known as professional printer's liability insurance, provides financial protection if a customer claims you made a mistake on their product. For example, if you printed the wrong price in a customer's product catalog, printers E&O would help cover the costs if you were sued.

EMC also provides an optional additional correction of work expense coverage. This helps cover the cost to correct or reprint materials with errors or omissions.
