Environmental Liability

Your operation and environment protected under one simple policy.

Safeguarding a sustainable future.

Perhaps only a decade ago, Environmental Liability was seldom available to the UK farm insurance market.

 

Due to pioneering work by specialist insurers, however, it’s become a standard inclusion for most farm insurance policies.

 

As we strive for a better, cleaner world, the farming community continually responds well to new legislation and stringent directives.

 

That being said, more rigorous regulations are no doubt on the horizon. With mounting pressure from engaged local villages, our sector needs to stick together to maintain its sustainability.

Environmental liability protects you from unexpected incidents and the potentially serious outcomes that could follow.

 

Environmental Liability cover is a legal requirement for many trades and is intended specifically to cover;

 

Farmers

Developers

Waste recycling operators

Quarries and quarry operators

Landfill operators

Other sites and landowners

 

If you operate such a project without environmental liability cover and, knowingly or unknowingly, your project legally requires it, you could face serious and everlasting consequences for your business and for you personally.
