Nuts and Bolts of Manufacturing Insurance.

We love manufacturing! It is a diverse, fascinating, foundation block of our economy. No two are the same, but all receive raw materials, apply improvements, and furnish a finished product. Let one of our manufacturing insurance agents offer a no-obligation risk analysis of your operations and advise how Bankers Insurance can assemble a solid insurance framework for you.

Manufacturers have the most broad-ranging insurance requirements of all business types. Property exposures are high with buildings, contents, equipment, materials, and inventory. Liability exposure, primarily the need for product liability insurance, can be a concern.  Most manufacturers have high workers compensation costs due to number of employees and the processes being performed by them.  Let Bankers Insurance demonstrate our manufacturing insurance expertise.
