Ironshore Specialty Casualty has created a new suite of endorsements to address the products liability exposure of manufacturers and distributors. Coverage is underwritten on a primary basis with limits available of up to $5 million on an occurrence or claims-made basis.

Ironshore said that its manufacturer-specific endorsements provide coverage for insureds' vendors and additional insureds to meet common industry contractual requirements.

Most notably, Ironshore's suite of new endorsements provides limited professional liability coverage and a crisis response service with recall reimbursement of up to $150,000 in addition to the primary policy limit.

Target classes of business include but are not limited to fabricated metal products (non-structural), consumer products, transportation products, sports equipment, and industrial machinery, equipment, and components.

“Ironshore recognizes the complexities of product-driven exposures to manufacturers and distributors. Our suite of endorsements has been designed to allow flexibility and responsiveness in addressing products liability risks based on the insured's specific coverage needs,” commented Tim McAuliffe, the president of specialty casualty.
