Questions About Product Liability Insurance For Health & Household Products
Product liability insurance for health and household products protects those who produce, manufacture, distribute or sell health and household equipment from liability claims that may arise from their products’ exposure to consumers. If your product causes bodily injury or property damage to another person or piece of property, you could be held responsible for the costs associated with those damages. Defense costs alone could put a business under.

The health and household equipment you sell exposes you and your business to lawsuits. The median product liability award in 2017 was $1.5 million. One of the main issues business owners have faced and continue to, is concerns around liability arising from their products and operations. In our litigious society, more and more third-party lawsuits are being filed, and you can’t keep your business exposed to that risk.
