What Is Product Liability Insurance?
Product liability insurance is a type of commercial insurance that can be a part of a general liability insurance policy or a standalone policy. It can provide coverage for lawsuits that arise from third parties that claim a product your business is responsible for caused property damage or bodily injury due to:
- Manufacturing defects—These are issues with the product that arose during the manufacturing process. They cause the item to differ from its intended design, making the product more dangerous than customers expect.
- Design defects—These are issues with a product inherent to its design that make it unsafe.
- Marketing defects—These are issues that arise due to how the product is marketed (e.g., failure to warn consumers of its dangers or providing inadequate instructions for its safe use).
Coverage for strict liability claims (i.e., when a business is held responsible for injuries or property damage caused by its products without being found negligent) may also be available.
Product liability insurance payments may be used to help compensate the affected parties (e.g., help pay for property losses or medical bills) and to cover associated legal fees, even if the claim is eventually dropped.
