Brewery Insurance

Canning and Bottling Line Insurance

A canning or bottling line is one of the most expensive pieces of equipment in a brewery, and it often comes from overseas. If it stops, your packaged range stops with it.

Example

How cover can respond in practice

A fault in the seaming head damages a can filler. The replacement part is imported and takes several weeks. Machinery breakdown covers the repair, and business interruption helps with lost packaged sales, subject to policy terms.

What it can cover

Cover we commonly review with you

  • The line itself, as plant and equipment

  • Mechanical and electrical breakdown

  • Fire, storm and theft

  • Packaged stock and packaging materials
