We have many clients in the manufacturing industry, large and small. Our ‘no bull’ approach will save you time and more than likely, some money as well.
Ceneta has access to over 100 underwriting agencies and insurers globally. This allows us to find the right insurance solution for your business. The answer is out there, and we know how to find it.
We tailor insurance programs to suit your needs, including:
- Public & Products Liability cover to protect your business for property damage or bodily injury caused by one of your products.
- Errors & Omissions or Professional Indemnity; provides cover for any design work the business undertakes, and any subsequent financial loss one of your customers may suffer.
- Product Recall is designed to cover the businesses’ expenses following a forced recall of one (or multiple) of your products, including transportation costs and restocking fees.
- Equipment Breakdown cover is critical for a manufacturer, especially if parts or replacement machines can take weeks or sometimes months to arrive. This policy covers loss of profits following a breakdown event, keeping the income rolling in.

FAQ
Why use a broker?
Using a broker means you’ll have expert advice on hand to help find solutions to your specific insurance needs, including the most difficult of business risks.
Insurance cover can be complex, and it changes. Working with a broker means you’re getting expert advice about the type of insurance you need to best manage your risks and protect your assets.
Your insurance broker will work with you to identify the key insurance risks that you or your business face. In the event of a claim, your Broker is your best friend. They will manage your claim and liaise with the insurer to achieve the best possible outcome.
Why haven’t I heard of the insurer that you have recommended?
There are 2 types of insurers in the world:
- Direct-to-market insurers – are the household name insurers that you see advertising every day. They sell their products directly to consumers. You can buy your insurance directly from them, often online. They typically deal in retail products like Home, Motor Vehicle, and Travel insurance.
- Intermediated insurers – These insurers will only sell their products through licenced insurance brokers, often because the products are of a more complex nature and require professional advice. For instance, for businesses requiring Public Liability, Professional Indemnity, Industrial Special Risk, and other business covers.
Can I pay by the month at no extra cost?
That depends on the insurer. Some offer instalment payments at no extra cost, and others don’t. We will always present you with the best value quote, and that may not be from the insurer that offers free monthly instalment payments. We do have an alternative solution: You can pay by the month via a third party premium funding facility, but charges apply. We can advise you when the time comes.
Who do I call if I want to lodge a claim?
Call your broker first!
They can guide you through the next steps in order to get your claim lodged and get you sorted.
It’s part of our service to advocate on your behalf with your insurer. Many insurers will not deal directly with policy-holders, so all communication needs to be via your Broker.
